All you want to do is sit around and pout
And now I've got enough 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 for so doggone long
That when I get a kiss I think that somethin's wrong
I'm leavin' now, I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow.

I'll go find a gal that wants to treat me right
You go and 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.

I remember back when you were nice and sweet
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 the midnight train
I'm takin' evrything cept my balled chain
I'm leavin' now, I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow...
