Oh well it's long gone, long gone
You got my baby and you're long gone
But I'll be hanging around
Cause I know you're gonna put her down
And she'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day
And find you long gone
Long gone
You just wandered into town
You took her and you started messing around
With my baby
You stole her heart
Cause she ain't used to your kind
With your fancy clothes
And uptown style
It didn't take but a little while
To get your way
Cause your pretty little lies
She couldn't see behind
And so it's long gone, long gone
You got my baby and you're long gone
But I'll be hanging around
Cause I know you're gonna put her down
And she'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day
And find you long gone
Long gone
The man in me would like to fight
To take you down by the river tonight
And change your way
But that would make her hate the sight of me
So there's nothing left for me to do
But stand and watch while the likes of you
Hurt the girl I love
While she's too much in love to even see
Oh yes it's long gone, long gone
You got my baby and you're long gone
But I'll be hanging around
Cause I know you're gonna put her down
And she'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day
And find you long gone
Long gone
Long gone
Long gone
