I'm Going Away Songtext

von Elizabeth Cotten

I am goin' away, baby,
And I'm goin' to stay;
You spent all o' my money,
You got no time for me.
Yes, I'm goin' away, honey,
And I'm goin' to stay.
Baby, you' going to miss me.
That's when I go away.

You called me yo honey,
You spent all o' my money,
And you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away.

You know you weren't true,
Baby, I believed in you.
I am broken hearted, just,
Oh the way you do.
You said you loved me,
Baby, no other one but me.
You never gave me no lovin'
That's why I'm goin' away.

You called me yo honey,
Spent all o' my money,
And you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away.

(INTRUMENTAL)

Never be no sunshine, it's gonna always be rain.
Honey, you goin' to want me to come back again.
Never be no sunshine, it's gonna always be rain.
You never gave me no lovin'
That's why I'm goin' away.

You called me yo honey,
Spent all o' my money,
And you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away.
