It all started
Early this morning
As her memory
Cruelly eased my mind
I found a picture in my wallet
I thought I threw away
Oh, it's been
One heck of a day
Then while looking
Through the evening papers
I ran across
Some torturing news
Mr. and Mrs. O'Grady
Now have a new baby
Oh, it's been
One heck of a day
Is it there for me to love her
And cry at the thought of her
When my only hope
Is a dream
An old friend
Dropped by late this evening
"Wouldn't you know?"
He asked about her
But I guеss he didn't know
That I lost her long ago
Oh, it's been
One hеck of the day
Oh, it's been
One heck of a day
