While you're honky-tonkin' 'round
All you do is run me down
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

You're tellin' all your friends
What a rascal I have been
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

I remember back when I was tall hog at the trough
Now my money's gone and you have really fluffed me off

You're giving me the blame
You ought to hang your head in shame
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

Now gal I can't forget
How you got me deep in debt
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

You said as you slammed the door
I was square as a four by four
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

You called me ev'ry thing you could, from a dummy to a dope
I know that you'd be satisfied if I took strychnine and croaked

When I say that you'll regret
You just puff that cigarette
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get

All the lies you've told one me, you'll regret someday
When Saint Peter says, now gal, just go the other way

Now I guess you'll say to him
It was all my fault again
Now we're parted
How cold hearted can you get
