Lyrics:

Oh Linda you done me wrong
I'm gonna sing you a goodbye song
Sing a song that's most unkind
I ain't even gonna try to change your mind Oh Linda you made me grieve
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling
Down from your sky Oh gal don't you say goodbye
Now that I need you by my side
Love me now or be on your way
If you go be gone to stay I saw Linda late last night
Dressed for town she looked alright
Painted eyes and lips like wine
Walkin' on down with a friend of mine Oh gal don't you say so long
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling
Down from your sky Oh gal don't you be unkind
I ain't even gonna try to change your mind
Love me now or be on your way
If you go be gone to stay Oh Linda you made me grieve
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling
Down from your sky Oh gal don't you say goodbye
Now that I need you by my side
You can have everything I own
Take everything but a-come on home Oh gal don't you say so long
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling
Down from your sky Oh gal don't you do me wrong
I'm gonna sing you a goodbye song
Sing a song that's most unkind
I ain't even gonna try to change your mind
