I’m Leaving Now

[Verse 1]
Hold on, honey, I'd like to say
I'm busting out and breaking away
I'm letting you go like a hot horseshoe
I can't take another heartache from you
Think about how it's gonna be
When you start back to needing me
When your dancing shoes have lost their shine
I'm gonna be gone in mine

[Chorus]
I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now
Get out of my face, get out of my place
I'm leaving now
Adios, I'm leaving now

[Verse 2]
And the time it come when you trim the fat
Feed the kitchen scraps to the front seat cat
Bye-bye baby when the bills come due
You might have to give up a jewel or two
Eat your heart out anyway
It's hard as your head and it's cold as clay
It's all over now, you won't have me
Your sugar daddy or your money tree

[Chorus]
I'm leaving now, yeah, I'm leaving now
Get out of my space, get out of my face
I'm leaving now
Hey, hey, I'm leaving now

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Pull up the collar on my traveling coat
Sell that miserable pleasure boat
I wouldn't give a nickel for another buck
I'm living on muscle, guts and luck
If anybody asks where did I go
Tell them I went where the wild goose go
I won't even have me an area code
Don't have a number, don't need a row

[Chorus]
I'm leaving now (Me, too), I'm leaving now
Get out of my face, get out of my space
Leaving now
Adios, I'm leaving now

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now
Get out of my face, get out of my space
I'm leaving now
Adios, I'm leaving now
