She left her boots she wears in the rain She left a note that I can't explain
She left a book she's been reading for days Beside her chest of drawers She left her nightgown hanging
But she left me no choice When it comes to getting over her She didn't leave me a chance in hell
Like a snowball in El Paso Like a feather in the wind Without a prayer I'll ever find someone like her again
And my heart's a penny on the rail No, she didn't leave me a chance in hell
She left me wondering what I'm gonna do With all these pieces left of me She left her scent all over the room So even in the dark I'd see
With no water in the well And without a single storm cloud overhead She didn't leave me a chance in hell
Like a snowball in El Paso Like a feather in the wind Without a prayer I'll ever find someone like her again
And my heart's a penny on the rail No, she didn't leave me a chance in hell
And my heart's a penny on the rail No, she didn't leave me a chance in hell No, she didn't leave me a chance in hell
