I'm Going Away - Elizabeth Cotten

I am goin' away, baby

And I’m goin' to stay;

You spent all o' my money

You got no time for me

Yes, I’m goin' away, honey

And I’m goin' to stay

Baby, you' going to miss me

That’s when I go away

You called me yo honey

You spent all o' my money

And you think that’s funny?

That’s why I’m going away

You know you weren’t true

Baby, I believed in you

I am broken hearted, just

Oh the way you do

You said you loved me

Baby, no other one but me

You never gave me no lovin'

That’s why I’m goin' away

You called me yo honey

Spent all o' my money

And you think that’s funny?

That’s why I’m going away

(INTRUMENTAL)

Never be no sunshine, it’s gonna always be rain

Honey, you goin' to want me to come back again

Never be no sunshine, it’s gonna always be rain

You never gave me no lovin'

That’s why I’m goin' away

You called me yo honey

Spent all o' my money

And you think that’s funny?

That’s why I’m going away
