Never realised how much she brought to the table.
Till I went to sit my cup of coffee where the table used to be.
No cats, no bed, no heirloom antique cradle,
An' no more hope for one day startin' that family.
Bet she's gainin' fast on Memphis with a trailer-load in tow.
Who says you can't take it with you when you go?
'Cause she got away with everything that I had goin';
An' she got away 'fore I could make it all alright.
An' I got away with leavin' what needs said unspoken.
Hell, I even blew the chance I had to say goodbye.
Yeah, she took her heart an' took off down that road,
An' they say you can't take it with you when you go.
Good news is: ain't much here left for packin'.
Bad news is: she left behind a million memories.
All the echoes of her cryin', lovin' an' laughin',
Left me with nothin' left to do but leave.
That ol' house is in the rear-view: ridin' shotgun is her ghost.
Who says you can't take it with you when you go?
'Cause she got away with everything that I had goin';
An' she got away 'fore I could make it all alright.
An' I got away with leavin' what needs said unspoken.
Hell, I even blew the chance I had to say goodbye.
She just took her heart an' took off down that road,
An' they say you can't take it with you when you go.
:. Instrumental Break .:
Closin' in on Dallas, now, is the best love I've ever known,
An' they say you can't take it with you when you go.
