Well I heard it from confidential sources you been thinkin' bout losin' my name
You been dialin' some unlisted number in some Memphis Tennessee exchange
Now you're plannin' on headin' down the highway and this time you're goin' for good
Well, honey don't think twice 'bout the pain you leave behind just do me one favor if you would
Don't say goodbye just slam that door
Don't apologize that only makes it hurt more
And all your sympathy will only make me cry
So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye
You were hopin' you could break it to me gently, You were hopin' we could part as friends
If i'd only try an' remain civil, I would see it your way in the end
Pardon me if I beg to differ but i'm the one who's gotta live with this pain
And when you're out on the town i'll still be broke down don't 'ya bother with tryin' to explain (CHO)
I don't need to have all the reasons numbered
You can save those condolences for some other guy baby some other time and... (CHO)
