Well, now let me tell you people
What I say is true
I just can’t stand
That old evil way she do

You’re gonna miss me
Miss me when I’m gone
Well, I know you’re gonna miss me, honey
When I’m dead and gone

Well, I am sittin’ in my basement
Sipping on my gin
Lookin’ for my baby, she’s gonna come
But I know not when

Not too sure
Gonna miss me when I’m gone
Yes, I know you’re gonna miss me, baby
When I’m dead and gone

Hello, bye, bye, baby
See you again
You won’t be so evil
You won’t have so many men

Miss me
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
Yes, I know you’re gonna miss me, baby
When I’m dead and gone
