My baby she left me
She never said a word
It was on the account of
Somethin' that she'd heard

She thought when she left
I'd run around and cry
But there's a crepe on my door
'Cause you are bidded you goodbye

Too long
You waited too long, to come home
Now your daddy don't need you no mo'
Too you long
You don't belong here any more
So stop, you're not knockin' on my do'

Now you left me sweet mama
For no good reason at all
And now there's another
Mule kickin' in your same old stall

Too long
You waited too long, to come home
Now your daddy don't need you no mo'

(instrumental)

Too long
You waited too long, to come home
Now your daddy don't need ya no mo'
Too long
You don't belong here any more
So stop, you're not knockin' on my do'

Now you left me sweet mama
For no good reason at all
And now there's another
Mule kickin' in your same old stall

Too long
You waited too long, to come home
Now your daddy
Don't need ya no'mo
