Lyrics Willie Nelson – Last Thing I Needed First Thing This Morning

The postman delivered
A «past due» bill notice
The alarm clock rang two hours late
The garbage man left all the trash

And this morning at breakfast
I spilled all the coffee
And I opened the 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
‘Cause it’s the holiday season»
And you fill such a big empty space

But then I laid down beside you
And I wanted your lovin’
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 lookin’
Like my world just ended
And excuse me for lookin’
Like I just lost my best friend
And excuse me for livin’
And being forgiving

But the last thing I needed
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me
