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

[ guitar ]

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

[ steel ]

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 taking evrything except my balled chain

I'm leavin' now I'm leavin' now I'm a long gone daddy I don't need you anyhow
