Long Gone Lonesome Blues

[Chorus]
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

[Verse 1]
Well I had me a woman who couldn't be true
She made me for my money and she made me blue
A man needs a woman that he can lean on
But my leanin' post is done left me and gone

[Chorus]
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

[Verse 2]
Since my baby done left me nothing turns out right
I can stand the days but oh the lonesome nights
She left me last Sunday about a quarter 'til nine
She's a long gone baby of mine

[Chorus]
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna find me a river that's as cold as ice
When I find me the river, Lord I'll pay the price
I'm goin' leave this world of woe behind
I'll be long gone like that baby of mine

[Chorus]
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

[Verse 4]
Well she told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out
Long about Monday she was nowhere about
Nowhere it is Tuesday, ain't had no news
I got them gone but not forgotten blues

[Chorus]
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue
