They tore down my old house baby Ain't nothin', nothin' but a patch of land They tore down my old house baby Ain't nothin', nothin' but a patch of land
And you know all that's left baby Is some letters in the mailbox Lying in the sand
Gotta change o' address baby Long and far away Gotta change o' address baby Long and so far away
Well you know I had to leave you No matter what the cost Darlin', everything I knew and loved was lost
