I've Been A Long Time Leavin' (but I'll Be A Long Time Gone) Lyrics - Roger Miller

I've been a fool, I've been a fool 

Forgivin' you each time you done me wrong 

I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone 

Loved you so much, loved you so much 

I stayed around when I should've moved along 

I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone 

I say, "Hi there high line, hello highway" 

Here come a big old semi my way 

I stick up my thumb, hear the truck come 

But the truck goes by and he looks like he's flyin' 

And he whoops the big legs on my Levi's 

They go woop woop woop woop woop 

I've been a fool, I've been a fool 

Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong 

I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone 

I say, "Hi, there high line, hello highway" 

Here come a big old semi my way 

I stick up my thumb, hear the truck come 

But the truck goes by and he looks like he's flyin' 

And he's whoopin' the big legs on my Levi's 

They go woop woop woop woop woop woop woop woop 

And I've been a fool, I've been a fool 

Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong 

I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone 

Gone gone gone, gone gone gone...
