She Wanted to Leave (Reprise) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Three men's all they were
Three men out at sea
Three men came aboard my ship
And took my true love from me
I couldn't believe
She wanted to leave
She wanted to leave
[Verse 2]
I've loved you so long
Since you were a child
I've cared for your every need
I've tried to make you smile
When all the while
You wanted to leave
You wanted to leave
[Verse 3]
Go gather the guns
We'll blast them at sea
She begged for me not to shoot
"For my true love is here with me
I've never loved thee
And now I must leave
And now I must leave."
[Outro]
So go fetch a bottle of rum, dear friends
And fill up my glass to the rim
For I'm not the man I used to be
Now I'm one of them
[silence]
("Dancing In The Show" outro)

“I think it’s one of the coolest songs we’ve ever done. At the time, we didn’t have a song like that. Nobody ever brings it up, but it’s straight Richard Thompson. It was one of those things where Aaron said, “I’ve got this lame idea.” I was like, “No man!” It kinda seemed like this lame adult song....
