behind on my ford

(Verse 1) She packed her bags ‘fore the dawn broke through, Left a note that said, “Boy, I’m done with you.” Coffee got cold, so did my soul, Ain’t paid that Ford note in a month or so. (Chorus) ‘Cause I’m behind on my Ford and my heart’s overdue, Bills on the table, same as the truth. She took my peace, my dog, my chords, Now I’m left cryin’, behind on my Ford. (Verse 2) Her mama called, said she’s doin’ fine, New man’s got money and a house with pines. I drive by slow, where we used to live, Rust on the truck, nothin’ left to give. (Chorus) Yeah, I’m behind on my Ford and my hope’s run dry, Bank keeps callin’, I just ask why. She took the sun, left clouds and storms, Now I’m broke and behind on my Ford. (Bridge) The repo man’s knockin’ down my drive, I just laugh, say, “Buddy, take your time.” Ain’t much left this heart can lose, She took the best — the rest’ll do. (Final Chorus) I’m behind on my Ford, behind on my pride, Behind on the tears I ain’t yet cried. She’s gone for good, I can’t afford, Her kind of love… or this old Ford. (Outro — softly) Yeah, she left me empty, like a tank run dry, Just me and that Ford, barely gettin’ by.
