They're Country & I'm Country so I will post them as I hear them.

THINGS HAVE GONE TO PIECES
Recorded by: George Jones

Oh the faucet started drippin' in the kitchen
And last night your picture fell down from the wall
Today the boss said sorry I can't use you anymore
And tonight the light bulb went out in the hall

CHORUS
Things have gone to pieces since you left me
Nothing turns out [*half-right] now it seems
There ain't nothing in my pocket but three nickels and a dime
But I'm holding to the pieces of my dream

Somebody threw a baseball through my window
And the arm fell off my favorite chair again
The man called me today and said he'd haul my things away
If I didn't get my payments made by ten

CHORUS
