I'M THROUGH
(Hal Harris)
SLEEPY LABEEF (Starday 292, 1957)

When I first met you baby, you were so sweet and shy
The way that you been treatin' me, I'm telling you goodbye
'Cause I'm through, I'm through with you
You can go home to your mother, find yourself another
Because I'm through, I'm through with you
I'm going to the depot, gonna walk right on inside
Gonna buy a long-long ticket, so you can take the one way ride
'Cause I'm through, I'm through with you
You can go home to your mother, find yourself another
Because I'm through, I'm through with you

Just tell that old conductor, if he don't have a loathe
You forgot your one way ticket to the end of the road
'Cause I'm through, I'm through with you
You can go home to your mother, find yourself another
Because I'm through, I'm through with you
When you hear the whistle of that big black lonesome train
Remember that I loved you once, but I never will again
'Cause I'm through, I'm through with you
You can go home to your mother, find yourself another
Because I'm through, I'm through with you
