| Don’t call my name out your window, as I’m leavin'
|
| 'Cause I won’t even turn my head
|
| And don’t send your kin folk to give me no dang talkin'
|
| 'Cause I’ll be gone like I said
|
| You’d can say the same ole things
|
| That you’ve been sayin' all along
|
| Just lay there in your bed
|
| And keep you mouth shut 'till I’m gone
|
| No, Don’t give me that old familiar, cry n' cuss n' moan
|
| Understand your man
|
| Oh, Understand your man
|
| huh.
|
| (Instrumental)
|
| Oh, party boys
|
| You can give my other suit to the Salvation Army
|
| And everything else I leave behind
|
| I ain’t takin' nothin' that’ll slow down my travelin'
|
| While I untangle my mind
|
| No, I ain’t gonna repeat what I said anymore
|
| While I’m breathin' air that ain’t been breathed before
|
| Yet, I’ll be as gone as a wild goose in winter
|
| Then you’ll understand your man (meditate on it)
|
| You’ll understand your man (You hear me talkin, now?)
|
| Understand your man (I told you so)
|
| Understand your man
|
| Huh,
|
| Oh hu.
|
| Understand your man
|
| Understand your man
|
| Understand your man
|
| Understand
|
| Understand your man… |
