I didn't hear the engines of a jet-plane I didn't hear the whistle of a train

I didn't hear the taxi-driver knockin' on my door

I didn't hear her walkin' cross the floor

But my baby packed up my mind and then she left me

She knew when I woke up that I'd be lookin' for my mind

She knew she'd leave a crazy man behind

But my baby packed up my mind and then she left me

[ mandolin - fiddle ]

I never thought this big ole king size bed would find her gone

I never thought she'd leave here alone

I never saw the distance or the leavin' in her eyes

I never thought my babe would wave goodbye

But my baby packed up my mind...

Yes my baby packed up my mind and then she left me
