[Verse 1]
Clothes ain't in the closet, shoes ain't under the bed
I should've believed her when she said what she said
"You'll never change I know you never will"
I just sat there watching tailights rollin' over the hill
I called her mama and I called her best friend
They said "She called it quits, so boy don't call here again"
Up and down these streets lookin' for her car
Tried to make it back home, but ended up at the bar
[Chorus]
She's gone (she's gone, so long) never coming back
So gone (so gone, so gone) the train went off the track
And all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put me and my baby back together again
So long (she's gone, so long) that's the way it goes
She's gone (so long, so long) and everybody knows
That I'm going crazy one night at a time
She's out of sight and I'm out of my mind
[Verse]
Thought I saw you down in Memphis walking in the rain
I caught a glimpse of you in Dallas gettin' off a plane
But it's all in my head what else can I do
She ain't drinkin' anymore, so I'm drinkin' for two
[Chorus]
She's gone (she's gone, so long) never coming back
So gone (so gone, so gone) the train went off the track
And all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put me and my baby back together again
So long (she's gone, so long) that's the way you know
She's gone (so gone, so gone) and everybody knows
That I'm going crazy one night at a time
She's out of sight and I'm out of my mind oohh
[Chorus]
She's gone (she's gone, so long) never coming back
So gone (so gone, so gone) the train went off the track
And all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put me and my baby back together again
So long (she's gone, so long) that's the way you know
She's gone (so gone, so gone) and everybody knows
That I'm going crazy one night at a time
She's out of sight and I'm out of my mind
(she's gone, so long)
Oh so long oh (so gone, so gone)
She's gone and everybody knows
That she's out of sight and I'm out of my mind
She's out of sight and I'm out of my mind
