Last time i saw laura she was dancing at the mardi grass
Every man in new orleans was saying ooh la la
The way she used to love me make a dead man walk
Tore me up to just see her move and i loved to hear her talk
I had to let it go i had to let it go
Oh i might have missed heaven but then you never know
I had to let it go i had to let it go
Last time i saw whiskey it was callin' out my name
Whiskey you know i loved you but we'll never be the same
You used to take me with you through the nights that had no end
One night when you weren't looking lord i snuck around the bend
I had to let it go...
Last time i saw reno so down on my luck
Sweet-talked a cocktail waitress into loanin' me a buck
By the time the night was over and i handed back the dice
Picked up my winnings and i kissed that waitress twice
I had to let it go i had to let it go
I might have rolled another seven but then you never know
I had to let it go i had to let it go
[ guitar ]
Life is just a puzzle inside a mystery
Your idea of heaven might look like hell to me
I just keep on moving see i never had a choice
Singing out these stories in this ragged down home voice
I had to let it go...
Oh no no no never let it go...
