Lyrics I'm Going Away - Elizabeth Cotten

I'm Going Away

I am goin' away, baby
And I’m goin' to stay;
You spent all o' my money
You got no time for me
Yes, I’m goin' away, honey
And I’m goin' to stay
Baby, you' going to miss me
That’s when I go away
You called me yo honey
You spent all o' my money
And you think that’s funny?
That’s why I’m going away
You know you weren’t true
Baby, I believed in you
I am broken hearted, just
Oh the way you do
You said you loved me
Baby, no other one but me
You never gave me no lovin'
That’s why I’m goin' away
You called me yo honey
Spent all o' my money
And you think that’s funny?
That’s why I’m going away
(INTRUMENTAL)
Never be no sunshine, it’s gonna always be rain
Honey, you goin' to want me to come back again
Never be no sunshine, it’s gonna always be rain
You never gave me no lovin'
That’s why I’m goin' away
You called me yo honey
Spent all o' my money
And you think that’s funny?
That’s why I’m going away
