You cheated me and left me lonely

I tried to be your very own

There'll be a day you'll want me only

But when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone


You're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'

You're gonna be blue and all alone

You'll regret the day you seen me weepin'

Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone


You'll see my face through tears and sorrow

You'll miss the love you called your own

Baby, there'll be no tomorrow

Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Be a long time gone

Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
