It Won’t Be Long

I had a gal in this town, now, but she throwed me down, she done throwed me down
I give her some clothes, she bought a diamond ring, but she can beat me, now
And it won't be long, and it won’t be long, and it won't be long

I take my gun, lay it out in your face, gonna let some graveyard be your resting place
A-and it won't be long, and it won’t be long

Oh, you gonna miss me when I'm gone, honey, and it won't be long
You gonna miss me when I'm gone, honey, and it won't be long

When you think I'm goin', I'm standin’ right chere wit’ your water on
And it won't be long, and it won’t be long

Yeah, and then it won't be long, and it won't be long
I tell you now, honey, it won't be long

When I’m gone, don't grieve after me
Don't you forget I went away
