Don't call my name out your window,when I'm leavin' I won't even turn my head Don't sent your kinfolks to give me no talkin' I'll be gone like I said
You'd say the same old things that you be sayin' all along Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut till I'm gone Don't give me that old familiar cryin' cussin' moan Understand your man, Understand your man
You can give my other suit to the Salvation Army And everything else I leave behind I ain't takin' nothin' that'll slow down my travelin' While I'm untangled my mind
I ain't gonna repeat,what I said anymore While I'm breathin' air that ain't been breathed before I'll be as gone as a wild goose in winter Then you'll understand your man
