Gone Too Long


I'm sorry if I left you without sayin' goodbye
Didn't think you'd understand the reasons why
By the time you read my letter, I'll be crossing that line,
If you're thinkin: "I'll go get her" then you're wastin' your time
You're gonna find out , baby,
I've been gone too long

Don't cry for me, baby, after I've gone
Save your dollars on the telephone
You're gonna need that money to pay the rent
'Cause I won't be comin' back with one red cent
You're gonna find out , baby,
I've been gone too long

Bye bye baby

Instrumental break

I sold that beat up Chevy to your best friend, Phil
Had every intention of payin' them credit card bills
Now I don't know where I'm goin' but the signs say west
Ask me or your mother: you can give her my regrets
You're gonna find out , baby,
I've been gone too long

Instrumental break

Don't cry for me, baby, after I've gone
Save your dollars on the telephone
You're gonna need that money to pay the rent
'Cause I won't be comin' back with one red cent
You're gonna find out , baby,
I've been gone too long

You're gonna find out , baby,
I've been gone too long

Bye, bye, baby

I 've got the check book with me
Oh, an' if you're looking for them golf clubs: don't

You see, I had this little yard sale,
Oh, an' darlin, don';t forget the beanie doll

Go now

Fade out
