cold gray kentucky morning

well the rain is a drippin' from the trees

just like the tears a fallin' from my cheeks

and the lonesome train's movin' down the track

just like her it ain't comin' back

she left me here without any warning

on a cold gray kentucky morning

i need a cup of coffee with a shot of cream

wake me from this awful dream

when i went to sleep she was by my side

and i didn't know she wasn't satisfied

well she left me here without any warning

on a cold gray kentucky morning

and all the time

she never said a word

i guess i should have known

from what i never heard

now i'm waking up without my darling

on a cold

cold gray kentucky morning

now the ohio is wide and deep

and i'm walking beside it in my sleep

and i'm thinking about drowning my sorrow

'cause i don't want to have to face tomorrow

she left me here without any warning

on a cold gray kentucky morning

and all the time

she never said a word

i guess i should have known

from what i never heard

now i'm waking up without my darling

on a cold

cold gray kentucky morning

on a cold

cold gray kentucky morning
