All you want to do is sit a round and pout
And now I got enough and so I'm getting out
I'm leavin' now...I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy...I don't need you any how

Lord , I've been in the doghouse so dog gone long
That when I get a kiss ..I think there's something wrong
I'm leavin' now...I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy...I don't need you any how

I'll go find a gal that wants to treat me right
You go get youself a man who wants to fight
I'm leavin' now...I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy...I don't need you any how

You start up jaws a waggin' and they never stop
You never shut your mouth until I blow my top
I'm leavin' now...I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy...I don't need you any how

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 any how

I'm gonna do some riding on the midnight train
I'm takin' everything...except my ball and chain
I'm leavin' now...I'm leavin' now
I'm a long gone daddy...I don't need you any how
