Box It Came In
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My clothes are all ragged my goodwill coat's not the best
And I'm a walking on cardboard in my last dollar dress
I looked in the closet for my wedding gown
But the box that it came in was all that I found
He took everything with him that wasn't nailed down
Bet he's got a new sweetheart to fill my wedding gown
But somewhere I'll find him then I'll have peace of mind
And the box he comes home in will be all satin lined
He took everything with him...
