You've Been Gone Too Long - Ann Sexton

The smile on your face baby

It’s not there anymore, no

And the thrill of a kiss honey

Is not like it was before

I know you been runnin and runnin

Yes I know, oh yeah

Because the look on your face, baby

Look kinda short oh yeah

You might as well run on

Cause baby you’ve been gone too long

And ain’t no use in coming home

Cause Jody got your girl gone

Go on, ah yeah

You’ve been gone too long

Yeah

The way you used to hold me

When we were all alone

It’s not there anymore babe

Cause baby the thrill is gone

But somehow it doesn’t matter

Beause I found a man who love me better

Go on, ah yeah

You’ve been gone too long

Yeah

You might as well run on

Cause baby you’ve been gone too long

And ain’t no use in coming home

Cause Jody got your girl gone

Go on, ah yeah

You’ve been gone too long

Yeah

I said Jody’s got your girl and gone
