    Lyrics
    You cheated me
    And made me lonely
    I tried to be
    Your very own

    There'll be a day
    You'll want me only
    But when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone

    Be a long time gone
    Be a long time gone
    Yes, when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone

    You're gonna be sad
    You're gonna be weepin'
    You're gonna be blue
    And all alone

    You'll regret the day
    You seen me leavin'
    'Cause when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone

    Be a long time gone
    Be a long time gone
    Yes, when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone

    You'll see my face
    Through tears and sorrow
    You'll miss the love
    You called your own

    Baby, there'll be
    No tomorrow
    'Cause when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone

    Be a long time gone
    Be a long time gone
    Yes, when I leave
    I'll be a long time gone
