Yeah, they came to take me away
3
Said I'd be sitting here for the rest of my life
4
But I don't really care - I shot my wife
5
And brother, I can't even remember the reason why
6
Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
7
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
8
Well I ain't had no love since I don't know when
9
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
10
We was down in Jacksonville
11
A cold winter night
12
My baby and I, we began to fight
13
I heated up, and I grabbed my gun
14
I get so cold on those nights down south
15
She was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor
16
She looked up at me and began to smile
17
Her gasping words: "Baby, I love you"
18
Then she closed those baby blue eyes
19
(chorus, and variations)
20
Sometimes I hear you call my name in the dead of the night
21
I ain't had those arms around me
22
I ain't had those lips, those lips, around me
23
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
24
So bad
