Yeah, They Came To Take Me Away
Said I'd Be Sitting Here For The Rest Of My Life
But I Don't Really Care - I Shot My Wife
And Brother, I Can't Even Remember The Reason Why


Oh, It Makes A Long Time Man Feel Bad
Yeah, It Makes A Long Time Man Feel Bad
Well I Ain't Had No Love Since I Don't Know When
It Sure Makes A Long Time Man Feel Bad


We Was Down In Jacksonville
A Cold Winter Night
My Baby And I, We Began To Fight
I Heated Up, And I Grabbed My Gun
I Get So Cold On Those Nights Down South


She Was Laying In A Pool Right There On The Kitchen Floor
She Looked Up At Me And Began To Smile
Her Gasping Words: "Baby, I Love You"
Then She Closed Those Baby Blue Eyes


(chorus, And Variations)


Sometimes I Hear You Call My Name In The Dead Of The Night


I Ain't Had Those Arms Around Me
I Ain't Had Those Lips, Those Lips, Around Me


It Sure Makes A Long Time Man Feel Bad
So Bad
