Once I thought your love I'd win but your old flame showed up in town again
Now I know your love I lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues

I've got a one way ticket to the world that's full of tears
All my dreams and hopes are gone we built up through the years
Seems I can't win I always lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues
[ fiddle - steel ]
I've tried to find somebody new but in my heart there's only room for you
You gave me something I can't lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues
I've got a one way ticket...
