I ll Be Gone lyrics

You ve been sittin here
For quite some time
Puttin down a lot of scotch
One eye is winkin at me
And another s lookin at your watch
Well I don t wanna hear about
No headache, baby
As strong as you ve been comin on
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone

Well, baby...well, maybe
I shouldn t call you baby no more
You say business like this
You don t wanna sell me no bacon
Don t you haul it out the door
Cause I want you, I need you
Baby, don t you read me wrong
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone

Well I learned my lesson a long time ago
When I was back in school
I treat you like the Queen of Sheba
But, baby, don t you play me no fool
Cause I want you, I need you
Baby, don t you string me along
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone

Ooouu...
You re lookin real good tonight, mama
You ve got all your green lights on
Well, every time I try to talk to you
It s just like talkin on the phone
Well, I need some lovin from your soul
It ain t enough that your legs are long
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone

Well, I learned my lesson a long time ago
When I was just back in school
I treat you like the Queen of Sheba
Oh but, baby, don t you play me no fool
Cause I want you, I need you
Baby, don t you read me wrong
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone
If you don t want me, just say
Honey, I ll be gone
