My woman is gone
(the woman is gone).
My woman is gone
(the woman is gone).

She had left me a note hanging on my door.
She say she couldn't take it, she couldn't take any more.
The pressure around me, just couldn't see.
She felt like a prisoner who needs to be free.
Fools have tried, yeah, wise men have failed.
Oh listen to me honey, life could never be another jail.
Still we know now we'll never see smoke without fire.
And everyone you see has a heart desire.

She's gone (she's gone).
She is gone (she's gone).
She is gone (she's gone).
She is gone! Yeah.
Oh mocking bird, have you ever heard
words that I never heard?
Oh mocking bird, have you ever heard
words that I never heard?

She made it through the exit
(she just couldn't take it).
She made it through the exit
(she just couldn't make it).
And, oh my children, if you see me crying
my woman is gone.
If you see me, if you see me,
if you see me, if you see me crying.
If you see me, if you see me,
if you see me, if you see me crying.

She's gone (she's gone).
She is gone (she's gone).
She is gone! Yeah.
Oh mocking bird, have you ever heard
words that I never heard?
