She left the car in the driveway She left the key in the door She left the kids at her mama's And the laundry piled up on the floor She left her ring on the pillow Right where it wouldn't be missed She left a note in the kitchen Next to the grocery list It said, You don't even know who I am You left me a long time ago You don't even know who I am So what do you care if I go He left the ring on the pillow He left the clothes on the floor And he called her to say he was sorry But he couldn't remember what for So he said I've been doing some thinking I've been thinking that maybe you're right I go to work every morning And I come home to you every night And you don't even know who I am You left me a long time go You don't even know who I am So what do I care if you go
