Well, I woke up this mornin' with
a terrible poundin' in my head
With an empty whiskey bottle lyin' beside me in my bed
Next to a letter from my baby
oh, and this here's what it read

She said I'm tired of your ways
boy, so I packed up and I left town
I did my best to love you
but time after time, you let me down
A-don't you come lookin' for me, boy
'cause once I'm gone, I can't be found

She can't be found
Oh, my sweetheart done left town
Well, I don't know what I'm gonna do now
'Cause my sweethеart can't be found

Well, I'm singin' sad love songs
down in somе dusty old saloon
Just a-thinkin' 'bout that woman
has got me howlin' at the moon
That girl is sweet as an angel
and hotter than the month of June

Now it's two in the mornin' and I'm all drunk and all alone
I tried to call that woman about
a dozen times now on the phone
Well, I hear her voice, but all she tells me is
"Leave a message at the tone"

She can't be found
Oh, my sweetheart done left town, yeah, mama
Well, I don't know what I'm gonna do now
'Cause my sweetheart can't be found, oh, play that guitar

She can't be found
Oh, my sweetheart done left town, yeah, uh-huh
Well, I don't know what I'm gonna do now
'Cause my sweetheart can't be found

Well, I don't know what I'm gonna do now
'Cause my sweetheart can't be found, oh no, no

She done run off on me now
I guess I'll just go get drunk
