Ain't Glad I'm Leaving Lyrics
Well I take my time a-comin’, take my time a-leavin’
If you ask me why I’m goin’, tell you when it’s needed
More than you know I could never be what you need
If you ain’t glad I’m leaving, girl you know you oughta be
‘Cause I lie I cheat I gamble, and I steal from many men
Where from Georgia to Los Angelos, Texas up to Maine
I’m a wanted man
Is that the kind of life you want to live (wanna live), baby?
(Life you wanna live)
If you ain’t glad I’m leaving, well you know you oughta be
So what’s a girl like you, want a man like me (like me, man like me)
Never know what I’m gonna do, if you never know where I’ll be (I’ll be, where I’ll be)
Now I know right now, baby, though it might seem wrong (seem wrong), yeah (might seem wrong)
But you don’t wake up in the morning, thanking to your Heavens that I’m gone
Well I’m so good, don’t take it too bad, ain’t nothing you could do
Well I ever fall in love and, keep it on the move
It’s just my way. I ain’t trying to be mean (mean), baby (tryin’ to be mean)
If you ain’t glad I’m leaving, girl you know you oughta be (oughta be, girl you oughta be)
Well if you ain’t glad I’m leaving, girl you know you oughta be (oughta be, girl you oughta be)
If you ask me why I’m goin’, tell you when it’s needed
More than you know I could never be what you need
‘Cause I lie I cheat I gamble, and I steal from many men
Where from Georgia to Los Angelos, Texas up to Maine
I’m a wanted man
Is that the kind of life you want to live (wanna live), baby?
(Life you wanna live)
If you ain’t glad I’m leaving, well you know you oughta be
Never know what I’m gonna do, if you never know where I’ll be (I’ll be, where I’ll be)
Now I know right now, baby, though it might seem wrong (seem wrong), yeah (might seem wrong)
But you don’t wake up in the morning, thanking to your Heavens that I’m gone
Well I ever fall in love and, keep it on the move
It’s just my way. I ain’t trying to be mean (mean), baby (tryin’ to be mean)
Well if you ain’t glad I’m leaving, girl you know you oughta be (oughta be, girl you oughta be)
