[Verse 1]
Well you tell me that you're leavin'
'Cause my drinkin' [?]
You can't stand to sit and watch me wreck my health
But you've know all along
That I'm an alcoholic
And if you leave me now, you'll help to kill myself

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So baby, don't you say you won't enable me no more
You'll take my life if you walk out the door

[Chorus]
If you're gone, I'll be a goner
I'm gonna hit the ground like a shot-down B-2 bomber
Oh Darlin' if you're gone, I won't live very long
Yeah, I'm gonna be a goner if you're gone

[Verse 2]
I've gotta make my livin' in this country band
And I've gotta travel from town to town
But you call me on the phone and say I've got to understand
Can't stay with a man who ain't around

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If I come off the road and find a goodbye note
Well, that's it for me, girl, that's all she wrote
[Chorus]
If you're gone, I'll be a goner
I'm gonna hit the ground like a shot-down B-2 bomber
Oh Darlin' if you're gone, I won't live very long
Yeah, I'm gonna be a goner if you're gone

[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So baby, don't you say you won't enable me no more
You'll take my life if you walk out the door

[Chorus]
If you're gone, I'll be a goner
I'm gonna hit the ground like a shot-down B-2 bomber
Oh Darlin' if you're gone, I won't live very long
Yeah, I'm gonna be a goner if you're gone
Baby, I'm gonna be a goner if you're gone
Oh Darlin', I'm gonna be a goner if you're gone
