I’ll Be Doggone Songtext
von Albert King

Well, I′ll be doggone if I would work all day
And I'll be doggone if I would bring you my pay
But if I ever caught you running around
Blowing my money all over this town

Then I wouldn′t be doggone
Hey, hey, I'd be long gone
Then I wouldn't be doggone
(Baby)
I′d be long gone. mmm, now, hey, hey, hey

I′ll be doggone if you ain't a pretty thing
And I′ll be doggone if you ain't warm as a breath of spring
And if we live to be a hundred year old
If you ever let that spring turn cold

Then I wouldn′t be doggone
Hey, hey, hey, I'd be long gone
Oh, I wouldn′t be doggone
(Baby)


I'd be long gone, mmm
Now, did you hear me?
Well, now, what I say
Oh, believe me

Well, ev'ry woman should try
To be whatever her man wants her to be
And I don′t want much
All I want from you is for you to be true to me

I′ll be doggone if love ain't a man′s best friend
Oh, baby, and I'll be doggone if you ain′t the loving end
Though I know you make me feel like nobody could
If I ever found out that you're no good

Then I wouldn′t be doggone
Well, I wouldn't be doggone
(Baby)
I'd be long gone

I wouldn′t be doggone
(Gonna catch me a train)
Naw, baby, I wouldn′t be doggone
I wouldn't be doggone
(Gonna catch me a plane)
