I'm a Long Gone Daddy Songtext
von Ernest Tubb

All you want to do is sit around and pout
And now I′ve got enough and so I'm gettin′ out
I'm leavin' now, I′m leavin′ now
I'm a long gone, daddy, I don′t need you anyhow

I've been in the doghouse so doggone long
That when I get a kiss I think there′s somethin' wrong
I′m leavin' now, I'm leavin′ now
I′m a long gone, daddy, I don't need you anyhow

Oh, Billy Byrd now


I′ll go find a gal that wants to treat me right
You go get yourself a man that wants to fight
I'm leavin′ now, I'm leavin′ now
I'm a long gone, daddy, I don't need you anyhow

You start your jaws a waggin′ and they never stop
You never shut your moth until I blow my top
I′m leavin' now, I′m leavin' now
I′m a long gone, daddy, I don't need you anyhow

Oh, Bunny now

I remember back when you were nice and sweet
But things have changed you′d rather fight than eat
I'm leavin' now, I′m leavin′ now
I'm a long gone, daddy, I don′t need you anyhow


I'm gonna do some ridin′ on that midnight train
I'm taking ev′rything except my ball and chain
I'm leavin' now, I′m leavin′ now
I'm a long gone, daddy, I don′t need you anyhow
