You wore out
a brand new trunk
Packin' and
un-packin' your junk
Your daddy's mad
He's done got pee-eeved
You're Gonna Change
or I'm a-gonna leave.
CHORUS:
You're gonna change
your way of livin'
Change the things you do
Stop doin' all the things
that you oughten too
Your daddy's mad
He's done got pee-eeved
You're Gonna Change
or I'm a-gonna leave.
This ain't right
and that is wrong
You just keep naggin'
all the day long
Its gotta stop,
I don't mean plea-ease
Now, You're Gonna Change
or I'm a-gonna leave.
The way to keep
a woman happy
And make her do
what's right
Is love her ev'ry mornin',
bawl her out at night
Your daddy's mad
He's done got pee-eeved
Now, You're Gonna Change
or I'm a-gonna leave.
Ev'ry time you get mad
You pack your rags and
go back to dad
You tell him lies
he don't belie-ieve
Now, You're Gonna Change
or I'm a-gonna leave.
CHORUS
