Intro:
If you need me, I`ll be gone
The bed`s still warm where you just left
But it`ll be colder where I`ve slept
I`ve always been where you needed me
But I ain`t the fool I used to be
You come home all hours of the night
The fragrance on you ain`t old spice
Tonight when you come draggin` home
And find you need me, I`ll be gone
1st Chorus:
I`ll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the dew from the buttercup
Gone like a woman treated wrong
If you need me, I`ll be gone
So, what am I still doing here?
You`ve been doin` me wrong for years
Tired of pickin` up and puttin` out
I`m leaving you lock, stock, and house
So, bye, bye, baby
That`s it, I`m packed
I`m a`leavin` now, but I`ll call back
And leave this message on the code-a-phone
Sayin`, if you need me, well, I`ll be gone
2nd Chorus:
I`ll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the dew from the buttercup
Gone like a woman leavin` home
If you need me, I`ll be gone
Repeat 2nd Chorus
I said, if you need me, I`ll be gone
