Lyrics Chris Stapleton – Last Thing I Needed, First Thing This Morning
Text:
The postman delivered
A «past due» bill notice
The alarm clock rang two hours late
The garbage man left all the trash
And the hinges fell off the gate
And this morning at breakfast
I spilled all the coffee
And I opened a door on my knee
But the last thing I needed
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me
Last night you came home late
And I knew you’d been drinking
By that old mellow look on your face
I thought, «It don’t matter
Because it’s the holiday season»
And you fill such a big empty space
But then I laid down beside you
And I wanted your loving
Because your love makes my life complete
But the last thing I needed
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me
So excuse me for looking
Like my world just ended
And excuse me for looking
Like I just lost my best friend
And excuse me for loving
And being forgiven
But the last thing I needed
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me
