"She Quit Me" lyrics - WARREN ZEVON

[Featured in the film "Midnight Cowboy"]

It wasn't the queen of diamonds that I drew first
Instead I got the ace of spades reversed
She quit me
She up and quit me, man-yeah
She quit me
She up and she quit me

It wasn't because I didn't treat her right-no
When dawn had drawn the curtains of the night
She quit me
She up and she quit me, man
She quit me
She up and quit me-yeah

It wasn't because I didn't treat her kind
I wonder who put leaving on her mind
She quit me
She up and she quit me, man
She quit me
She up and quit me-yeah

It wasn't because I couldn't satisfy-no
Now where'd she get the nerve to say goodbye
Oh, she quit me
She up and quit me, man-oh, yeah
She quit me
She up and quit me-yeah
