Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am going away, baby
And I'm going to stay
You spent all of my money
You got no time for me
Yes, I'm going away, honey
And I'm going to stay
Baby, you going to miss me
That's when I go away
[Verse 2]
You called me yo honey
You spent all of my money
Then you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away
[Verse 3]
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
Honey, no other one but me
You never gave me no lovin'
That's why I'm goin' away
[Verse 4]
You called me yo honey
You spent all of my money
Then you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
You called me yo honey
You spent all of my money
And you think that's funny?
That's why I'm going away
