1. Well, I’ll be doggone if I wouldn’t work all day, baby,

G

and I’ll be doggone if I wouldn’t bring you my pay, baby.

But if I ever caught you running around,

Em A

blowing my money all over this town,

G

then I wouldn’t be doggone, hey, I’d be long gone.

G

Then I wouldn’t be doggone,

I’d be long gone (I’d be long gone).
