Well, i'll be doggone if i wouldn't work all day |
|
And i'll be doggone if i wouldn't bring you my pay |
|
But if i ever caught you running around |
|
Blowing my money all over this town |
|
Then i wouldn't be doggone |
|
Hey, hey! i'd be long gone |
|
Then i wouldn't be doggone |
|
I'd be long gone |
|
Now hey, hey, hey! |
|
I'll be doggone if you ain't a pretty thing |
|
And i'll be doggone if you ain't warm as a breath of spring |
|
And if we live to be a hundred years old |
|
If you ever let that spring turn cold |
|
Then i wouldn't be doggone |
|
Hey! i'd be long gone |
|
Oh i wouldn't be doggone |
|
I'd be long gone |
|
Now did you hear what i say ? |
|
Well now what i say |
|
Oh, believe me well, every woman should try |
|
To be what ever has man wants her to be |
|
And i don't want much |
|
All i want from you is for you to be true to me |
|
Well, i'd be doggone if love ain't a man's best friend |
|
Oh, baby, and i'll be doggone if you ain't the loving end |
|
Though i know you make me feel like no baby could |
|
If i ever found out that you're no good |
|
Then i wouldn't be doggone |
|
Hey, hey, hey, i'd be long gone |
|
Well i wouldn't de doggone baby |
|
I'd be long gone |
