Lyrics: Traditional
Music: Traditional
This was sung by Boz Scaggs with the Dead on 28 May 1982.
I got a good mind to give up livingOrigins
And go shopping instead
I got a good mind to give up living
And go shopping instead
Pick me a tombstone and get pronounced dead
Since I got your letter this morning
It was on your place in bed
Since I got your letter this morning, babe
It was on your place in bed
That's when I decided that I'd be better off dead
Since I got that letter, baby
It was on your place in bed
Since I got your letter this morning, baby
It was on your place in bed
That's when I decided that I'd be better off dead
Said, it's no use looking, baby
Or ever hoping to get me back
No use looking, baby
Or ever hoping, or ever hoping to get me back
Because it's all over now, and baby you can bet on that
