DON'T BE GONE LONG (B. Doss - H. Harris) BOB DOSS (STARDAY 45-265, 1956)
Well, you make me sad and you make me blue You make me cry and you make me true When you go out, you take too much time Baby, gonna make me lose my mind
Don't you be gone long Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Or your dog will find another bone
Well, I'm stayin' in my room till my energy's gone I ain't got a cent to pick up the phone You can go to the corner for a loaf of bread Just you remember what I said
Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Or your dog will find another bone
Well, you told me when you walked out the door That you'd be back at quarter to four The clock don't lie baby, and I can't wait Baby, you better come through that gate
Don't you be gone long Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Or your dog will find another bone
Let's rock dog!
Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Don't be gone long Or your dog will find another bone
