Just got into town on a midnight plane

After this is over I'll be leavin' again

Somebody wants to put the pin on me

She's sayin' that it's mine but I know that can't be



Makin' it easy for me to be movin' on

Makin' it easy for me to be a long time gone



Met her at a job was a Friday night

She was sittin' in the front row lookin' outta sight!

Sang my song to her all about romance

Oo we got together and she took a chance



Makin' it easy for me to be movin' on

Makin' it easy for me tote a long time gone



Ya know I left that town, they're all the same

I was doin' all right till the letter came

She said, "I'm sorry, baby, but just the same

I got to find somebody to take the blame"

Oh yeah



I said, "What's this, babe, you know I got no time

To be worryin' 'bout a problem that I know ain't mine

You've had too many lovers to know it's me

You better find somebody else, I wanna be free"



Makin' it easy for me to be movin' on

Makin' it easy for me to be a long time gone
