I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

You have done me wrong, baby
For so long and I'm gone

My thoughts I had to swallow
Mama, every time that you holler
Made me feel so low like a rug on the floor
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

Now and then you tell me that you love me
(Tell me that you love me)
Ooo wee baby, you kiss me and hug me
Then you slam the door for a month or more
And I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

In your doing me wrong
You have made me strong but I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone

I was just a match and you're the owner
Light me up, then blow me out
Then throw me in a corner

Well, I put it to you straight as an arrow
Yes, I love you right down to the marrow
But you done me wrong down to the bone
And I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

I'm gone, I'm gone

You said you found me note now
In the pocket of your favorite coat
I left you something to show
That I'm still a good sport
And I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

I was just a match and you're the owner
Light me up, then blow me out, then
Throw me in a corner

Well, I put it to you straight as an arrow
Yes, I love you right down to the marrow
But you done me wrong down to the bone
And I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone

I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone

I hear you knocking
