It all started early this morning
As her mem'ry cruely teased my mind
I found a picture in my wallet I thought I hrew away
Oh it's been one heck of a day

Then while looking through the evening papers
I ran across some torturing news
Mr and Mrs O'Grady now have a new baby
Oh it's been one heck of a day

Is it there for me to love her and cry at the thought of her
When my only hope is a dream
An old friend dropped by late this evening
Wouldn't you know he asked about her
But I guess he didn't know that I lost her long ago
Oh it's been one heck of a day
Oh it's been one heck of a day
