Verse 1
You told me last night you was leaving
But that didn’t cut me up at all
When you went thru that door I laughed, baby
I knew you’d be coming back thru my door

Chorus
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
Too long, too long, too long

Verse 2
Last night I gave you money for your transportation
Your leaving me didn’t hurt my face
Your leaving me didn’t hurt an inch, baby
You’re not the only fish in the sea

Chorus
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
Too long, too long, too long

Bridge
I know girl I left you far, far behind
But, when you come back
You’ll be mine all, all mine

Chorus
I see you walking down that long and
Long dusty road
Dragging your bag behind you
But you ain’t coming back into my establishment, baby
Until you do the things on my mind…’cause

Chorus
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
You couldn’t stay away, stay away
Stay away from me
Too long, too long, too long
You couldn’t stay
You couldn’t stay away
You couldn’t stay
You couldn’t stay away
You couldn’t stay
You couldn’t stay away
You couldn’t stay away from me
