Long Gone

(albüm: The Last Waltz - 1967)

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 gonna put her down
She'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day and finds you long gone
Long gone!

You just wonder 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
You didn't take 'bout a little while to get your way
'Cause your pretty little eyes she couldn't see behind

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 gonna put her down
She'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day and finds you long gone
Long gone!

The man and me would like to fight
And take you down by the rhythm of the night and change your ways
But that would make her hate the side of me
So there's nothing left for me to do
But stand and watch while the lights of you hurt the girl I love
But she's too much in love to even see

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 gonna put her down
She'll need someone that's true
When she wakes up one day and finds you long gone
Long gone!

Long gone, long gone!
