I'm tired Lord and I'm drawn
   And I'm chilled right to the bone
   I crawled home from my work
   And this note said she was gone
   Said your dinner's in the cat
   And your love is out the door
   I'm goin' back to my momma
   And I don't want you no more, no more
   She said she don't want me no more
   She's gone back to her momma
   Said she's never never comin' back no more
  
   Now a man can take so much
   And only heaven knows his limit
   But a naggin' bitchin' woman
   Digs a hole and puts him in it
   A sophisticated man
   Needs a little something on the side
   So what you don't get at home
   You've gotta get outside, hey
  
   She's gone
   I'm spending all of my money
   She's gone, gone, gone
   And I can swing with my honey
   She's gone
   I'm so glad my woman's gone
  
   Now time goes marching on
   And it won't wait for you
   You've gotta take it when it's offered
   And get it when it's due
   Now a man can move much faster
   Without a millstone around his neck
   So if you get the chance to lose it
   You've gotta drop it and run like heck, hey
  
   She's gone
   I'm spending all of my money
   She's gone, gone, gone
   And I can swing with my honey
   She's gone
   I'm so glad my woman's gone
  
   She's gone
   I'm spending all of my money
   She's gone, gone, gone
   And I can swing with my honey
   She's gone
   I'm so glad my woman's gone
