LYRICS

Long gone is how I’m leaving
Long gone, why do you cry
This is what you wanted baby
So I’m gone, long gone

I have tried to make you happy
Still you say I’ve done you wrong
Oh I’m giving up my darling
So I’m gone, long gone

Long gone is how I’m leaving
Long gone, why do you cry
This is what you wanted baby
So I’m gone, long gone

Just a few short words of parting
Don’t shed no tears they won’t atone
All the things are packed to travel
Now I’m gone, long gone

Long gone is how I’m leaving
Long gone, why do you cry
This is what you wanted baby
So I’m gone, long gone

Long gone is how I’m leaving
Long gone, why do you cry
This is what you wanted baby
So I’m gone, long gone

So I’m gone, long gone
