They said your love life's in trouble 
In a magazine I read
When the one you love is hanging off of his side of the bed
Baby, you're just barely hanging on
Honey, I know you'll be soon be gone
And I don't need my palm read to know what lies ahead
I can see you the arms of another girl instead
Baby, this ain't the first time you've done it to me
Honey, it's gonna be the last time

[Chorus]
And I know you think that I'll be going out of my mind 
Crying you a river that winds and winds and winds
Oh but baby I'm down to my last teardrop this time
I don't care who or what you're doing
ain't gonna be no more boo-hooing
Baby, this time I swear it's the truth
I ain't gonna cry no more for you
Uh huh

Now I know where I'm going baby 
I know where I'm bound
I've been rearranging chairs on a ship that's going down
Baby just step aside if you would
Honey, it's really over for good 
And you might want to talk to me 
You might want to call 
But you won't hear nothing out of me at all
'cause baby
I ain't got nothing left to say
Honey I'll just be on my way

[Chorus]

And I know you think that I'll be going out of my mind 
Crying you a river that winds and winds and winds
Oh but baby I'm down to my last teardrop 
Baby I'm down to my last teardrop
Baby I'm down to my last teardrop this time
