I made a mistake last night
Called you up on the phone
Woman said, "I'm sorry sir,
your girl she is long gone"
And I know
Something right is going on wrong
I'm missin' something
Somebody missin' me too long
I went over by your house
Walked right through the door
Who was that man with that great big gun
Said you are goin' be long
Now I know
Something right is going on wrong
I'm missin' something
Somebody missin' me too long
Somebody missin' me too long
You know you got a drag
When what you really once had
Is all you really want
From now on
Every time you find a new lover
You find a way
To make it go wrong
You know somebody missin' me too long
I have tried
I have cried
I've even called out your name
All that I hear echoin' back
Is that the answer is still the same
And I know
Something right is going on wrong
I'm missin' something
Somebody missin' me too long
(refrain)
