This Used To Be The Home Of Johnnie Mae Lyrics - Singles - Eddie Kendricks

I wake up there's no smell of bacon frying 

And it's hard realizing she won't be home no more, no more 

I go to work in rough dried shirts I can't call on my break 

Oh, how it hurts to know she won't be home no more, no more 

This dog of mine seems half alive, he misses her too 

I can see it in his eyes, she never left before, before 

This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae 

This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay 

But she's not here no more, no more 

Let me talk to you for a minute now 

I can't explain just how I feel, I can't believe that it's for real 

She's not here no more, no more, this used to be her easy chair 

But the chair looks uneasy without her sitting there 

She never left before, before 

Now and then her friends drop in, it takes my breath away 

When I have to say, she don't live here no more, no more 

This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae 

This used to be the yard where Johnnie used to play 

But she don't live here no more, no more 

She don't live here no more, no more 

Now and then her friends drop in, it takes my breath away 

When I have to say she don't live here no more, no more 

This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae 

This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay 

But she's not here no more, no 

This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae 

This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay 

But she's not here no more, no more 

This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae 

This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay 

But she don't live here no more, no more
