Lonnie Johnson - Goodbye Kitten (1961) lyrics

rate me

Since you been gone baby, life don’t seem the same.

Since you been gone baby, life don’t seem the same.

You crushed all the love we built up together, baby that’s a rotten shame.

I have never caused you any heartaches, why do you do the things you do?

I’ve never caused you any heartaches, baby, why do you do the things you do?

You only hurt me this way, after you found out I was wrapped up in love with you.

I give you my heart and soul, and everything that ‘s in my mind.

Yes, I give you my heart and soul, and everything that was really fine.

And when I thought you was in love with me, baby, ah, I was only wasting time.

Men have told you you’re pretty, and it’s all gone to your head.

Yes, men been tellin’ you you’re so pretty, baby, and it’s all goin’ to your head.

Yes, but it’s a slow trip to the graveyard, baby, and you almost dead.

Yes, so long kitten, I’ve throwed you out my mind.

Yes, so long kitten, I’ve throwed you out my mind.

‘Cause you don’t mean a man no good, and it’s only just a waste of time.
