She’s gone, yes she’s gone   She’s gone, solid gone     Ah, the girl’s a valentine, she’s fine   Her eyes are green and her hair is brown   Ah, that’s a genuine woman that ain’t on hand in town     Well now, just as soon as I see her I’m gonna say   “Get your fine self right home!”   And then just one more thing I’ve gotta know   What in the world did I do to make the woman go?     She’s gone, yes she’s gone   She’s gone, solid gone     Now she might be in Chicago,   I thought I saw her down in Tennessee   I traveled round the world to bring my baby on home to me     She’s gone, yes she’s gone   She’s gone, solid gone     And now some people just call her sugar   Although her real name is Nancy Joe   She’s the only gal for me   I’m going to be her steady boy     Ah, just as soon as I see her   I’m gonna say “you better get it on home today”   Just one thing I need to know   What in the world did I do to make the woman go?     She’s gone, yes she’s gone   She’s gone, solid gone     Well now she might be in Chicago   I thought I saw her down in Tennessee   I traveled round the world to bring my baby on home to me
