Well, let me tell you people a lowdown thing or two
I just can't stand that old evil way she do
She gonna miss me when I’m dead and gone.
Said, I know you're gonna miss me, child, when I'm dead and gone.
Well, I came home this mornin', she wouldn't let me in
"Home and gold and money, I got too many friends"
You're gonna miss me when I’m dead and gone
Said, I know you're gonna miss me, child, when I'm dead and gone.
Well now, it’s hard to love a woman when the woman don't love you
She treat you so dirty, don’t know what to do
You're gonna miss me when I’m dead and gone
Baby, I know you're gonna miss me, child, when I'm dead and gone
Well now, bye-bye baby, hope we meet again
You won't be so evil, you won't have so many men
You're gonna miss me baby when I’m dead and gone
Said, I know you're gonna miss me, child, when I'm dead and gone.
