Well, I was under the impression everything was going 

just fine

Lookin' back I'd say that it was great 

?Til she packed up all her bags and she loaded that ole 

truck

And she tore out down that interstate

So I called up her Momma on the phone that night

And explained the situation I was in

She said, ?You might as well forget it, what's done is 

done

And she won't be coming back again?.



(1st Chorus)

And it don't get bluer than that now, Darlin'

It don't get bluer than that

I've got a broken heart and a cold six pack

And it don't get bluer than that.



There's a picture of us in the frame on the dresser

From the weekend that we spent in Panama

And a shoebox in the closet, just filled with cards and 


letters

Girl, I got a half a mind to burn them all

Now, who'd of ever thought that it would be like this

No, I never saw it ending this way

There's a dark cloud over my head tonight

And it looks like the rain is here to stay.



(2nd Chorus)

And it don't get bluer than that now, Darlin'

It don't get bluer than that

Like a midnight train on a cold, dark track

And it don't get bluer than that.



Ah, it's got to be as lonely as a man can get

Ah, this ole heart is hurting like it just won't quit.



(Repeat 1st Chorus)



(Repeat 1st Chorus)



And it don't get bluer than that.
