It all started early this morning

As her mem'ry cruely teased my mind

I found a picture in my wallet I thought I hrew away

Oh it's been one heck of a day



Then while looking through the evening papers

I ran across some torturing news

Mr and Mrs O'Grady now have a new baby

Oh it's been one heck of a day



Is it there for me to love her and cry at the thought of her

When my only hope is a dream

An old friend dropped by late this evening

Wouldn't you know he asked about her

But I guess he didn't know that I lost her long ago

Oh it's been one heck of a day

Oh it's been one heck of a day
