Passion, lace, and perfume
down at the Flat Rock Inn.
All was supposed to end there,
but it had just begun.

I left her with her husband
down at the Flat Rock Inn.
I left her with her husband
but he didn't know where to begin.

I'm a lonesome heartsick sinner
and lord am I confused.
She done left me spinnin'
and wondering if I'm the fool.

I left her with her husband,
much to my chagrin.
Cigars, cigarettes, and whiskey,
it's all the same in the end.
