My room was empty, and my woman was gone

Asked my next door neighbor, which-a-way did my baby go?
She says she left for the border, down in old Mexico

I found a note on the floor, it almost sent me off in a trance
She said it's nothin' that you done, I'm just leavin' in advance

It's so hard when a woman leave you, and leave you on a zoom
You come home feelin' very happy, and find only a empty room
