You're Gonna Change (Or I'm Gonna Leave)

(Hank Williams)



Well, you wore out a brand new trunk

Packin' and unpackin' your junk

Your daddy's mad he's done got peeved

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave.



You're gonna change your way of livin'

Change the things you do

Stop doin' all the things that you oughtn't to

Your daddy's mad he's done got peeved

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave.



Well, now this ain't right and that ain't wrong

You just keep a-naggin' all the day long

It's gotta stop I don't mean please

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave.



The way they keep a lover happy

Make her do what's right

It's love her every morning love her out at night

Your daddy's mad he's done got peeved

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, now every time you get mad

You pack your rags and you go back to dad

You tell him lies he don't believe

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave.



You're gonna change your way of livin'

Change the things you do

Stop doin' all the things that you oughtn't to

Your daddy's mad he's done got peeved

You're gonna change or I'm a gonna leave...
