Nina Simone
You’ve Been Gone Too Long
Sellers

You've been gone too long
You've been gone much too long
Baby I'm telling you, you've been gone too long
Now I've got a guy loves to stay home at night
He really knows how to treat me right
You've been gone too long, you've been gone too long
Baby I'm telling you, you've been gone too long

Now, you went out with Ruth, well you know that's the truth
You went out with Flo, and she ain't so slow
Oh, you've been gone too long, you've been gone too long
Baby I'm telling you, you've been gone too long

Now let me tell you baby, don't you push me around
Just you do yourself a favour and get out of town
You've been gone too long, yes, you've been gone too long
Baby I'm telling you, you've been gone too long
You've been gone too long, you've been gone much too long
