"New Shoes (Postcard)" lyrics

Hey, honey
Cat got ya tongue?
Don't look so funny
Mr. Comedian, joke's on you and
You good at bets, so where's my money?
I know you bet I'd never make that move
So, why's the house empty?
Lights off by the end of this week
I leave with what I came with, baby
I'll take the dogs, you keep the Mercedes

'Cause I'm gone, I'm not fazed
I walk these roads with grace
And I'll wave with you behind me
With a new smile on my face, 'cause

I'm walking in new shoes now
I got a new song to sing
When I walk in the room, every head turns
Every eye is on me
Too bad you're not here to see it
And by the time you get this
I'll be so long, gone and far
I'll send you a postcard
I'll send you a postcard

Hey, baby
You seen a ghost?
This ain't your lady
This is the chick that you held back
Now, all of the things you said were crazy
I checked off my list and I feel good about it
I got the new haircut
The one that you said wouldn't look no good
Took that job you said I could not get
Wore that dress you said I'd never fit

'Cause you're gone, and I'm great
I got rid of your dead weight
And I'll wave at you behind me
With a new smile on my face, 'cause

I'm walking in new shoes now
I got a new song to sing
When I walk in the room, every head turns
Every eye is on me
Too bad you're not here to see it
And by the time you get this
I'll be so long, gone and far
I'll send you a postcard
I'll send you a postcard
