You've Been Gone Too Long
The smile on your face, baby
Is not there anymore, no
And the thrill of your kiss, honey
Is not like it was before
I know you've been running around
Yes, I know, oh, yeah
You've got the look on your face, baby
It kind of shows, oh, yeah
You might as well run on
'Cause baby, you've been gone too long
And ain't no use in coming home
'Cause Jodie's got your girl gone, gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
The way you used to hold me
When we were all alone
Is not there any more, babe
Because, baby, the thrill has gone
But somehow it doesn't matter
Because I've found me a man, love me better
Gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
You might as well go home
'Cause baby, you've been gone too long
There ain't no use in coming home
'Cause Jodie's got your girl, gone
Gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
I said Jodie's got your girl and gone
I said Jodie's got your girl and gone
Ain't no use in coming home
Because Jodie's got your girl and gone
Took too long to come home
Is not there anymore, no
And the thrill of your kiss, honey
Is not like it was before
I know you've been running around
Yes, I know, oh, yeah
You've got the look on your face, baby
It kind of shows, oh, yeah
You might as well run on
'Cause baby, you've been gone too long
And ain't no use in coming home
'Cause Jodie's got your girl gone, gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
The way you used to hold me
When we were all alone
Is not there any more, babe
Because, baby, the thrill has gone
But somehow it doesn't matter
Because I've found me a man, love me better
Gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
You might as well go home
'Cause baby, you've been gone too long
There ain't no use in coming home
'Cause Jodie's got your girl, gone
Gone
Oh, yeah, you've been gone too long, yeah
I said Jodie's got your girl and gone
I said Jodie's got your girl and gone
Ain't no use in coming home
Because Jodie's got your girl and gone
Took too long to come home
