If you need me I'll be gone The bed's still warm where you just left but it'll be colder where I've slept
I've always been where you needed me but I ain't the fool I used to be
You come home all hours of the night the fragrance on you ain't old spice
Tonight when you come draggin' home and find you need me I'll be gone I'll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the dew from the buttercup
Gone like a woman treated wrong
If you need me I'll be gone So what am I still doing here you've been doing me wrong for years
Tired of pickin' up and puttin' out I'm a leaving you lock stock and house
So bye bye baby that's it I'm packed I'm a leaving now but I'll call back
And leave this message on the code a phone sayin'
If you need me, well, I'll be gone I'll be gone like the moon when the sun comes up
Gone like the moon when the sun comes up
I said if you need me, well, I'll be gone
If you need me I'll be gone I said if you need me, well, I'll be gone, gone
If you need me I'll be gone gone
If you need me I'll be gone
