If this was a joke
I'd be laughing by now
Cuttin' up with the boys
And braggin' bout how
I talked my way
Out of the trouble I was in again
She kept sayin'
You're gunna miss me
But I never did take her seriously
I guess her gift of prophecy was real amen
[Chorus:]
Baby's gone
Baby ain't to blame
That'd be my fault
Me and my no brain
Might'a took a train to Tupelo
Might'a been Tulsa for all I know
Talk about movin' on
Baby's gone
I admit I'm the type
Needs a wake-up call
Sometimes you gotta hit me
With a cannonball
I guess baby goin' AWOL did the trick
Pretty quick
Now the trick is
Gettin' that phone
If I have to call everybody she's ever known
And tell'em this
[Chorus:]
If you wanted my attention
You've got it now
Baby, anything
Anywhere
Anyhow
[Chorus:]
That's the name of the song
Baby's gone
