Lyrics

[Verse 1]

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

What you say?

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

[Verse 2]

Woah woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean

You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen

I guess if you said so

I'd have to pack my things and go (That's right)

[Verse 3]

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

What you say?

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

[Verse 4]

Now baby, listen baby, don't ya treat me this-a way

'Cause I'll be back on my feet some day

(Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood)

(You ain't got no money you just ain't no good)

Well, I guess if you say so

I'd have to pack my things and go (That's right)

[Verse 5]

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

What you say?

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

[Verse 6]

C'mon, hit it

(Don't you come back)

I didn't do it

Oh yeah (That's right)

(Don't you come back)

[Verse 7]

(Ooh, don't you come back)

(Ooh, don't you come back)

(Ooh, don't you come back)

(Don't you come back, don't you come back)

[Verse 8]

Oh woman, oh woman, don't you treat me so mean

You're the meanest old woman I've ever seen

I guess if you said so

(You'll have to pack your things and go)

[Verse 9]

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

I don't wanna see you 'round here

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

(No more, no more, no more)

(Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more)

[Verse 10]

And don't you come back no more

(Don't you come back no more)

No you ain't gonna see me 'round here

(Don't you come back no more)

Oh, don't come cryin' to me

(Don't you come back no more)

Well, I'll pack my things and go

(Don't you come back no more)

Don't you come back
