Ever since the day that you left me I been whinin’ like a little lost pupThe sun went down when you left town and you ain’t a gonna come back upA walkin’ in a wearin’ out leather a scuffin’ up the hardwood floorStarin’ at the phone since you’ve been gone and listenin’ for a knock on the doorI said there ain’t nothin’ shakin’ but the leaves on the treesAnd they wouldn’t shake if it wasn’t for the breezeThere ain’t nothin’ happenin’ with the birds and the beesThere ain’t nothin’ shakin’ but the leaves[ guitar ]Hurt slippin’ in’ through the window the heartaches are laughin’ in the hallAnd I got the news that old man blues is a seepin’ through the cracks in the wallThe end is a waitin’ round the corner and hope is just about goneIf you only knew how I needed you then you’d come a runnin’ back homeI said there ain’t nothin’ shakin’…I said there ain’t nothin’ shakin’…
