so happy for her

slowly I headed on home

knowing i'd see brad

he wasn't there yet

surely he'd come in soon

i'd made a great plan

when he'd made it home

discovered mechelle was gone

asked if i'd seen her

I told him she'd left

I-20 west .. where she'd gone

hitchhiked out of town

he was damned angry

cursed .. stomped .. knocked holes in the walls

all night long he'd cursed
