Love me now or be on your way
If you go be gone to stay

I saw Linda late last night
Dressed for town she looked alright
Painted eyes and lips like wine
Walkin' on down with a friend of mine

Oh gal, don't you say so long
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling down from your sky

Oh gal, don't you be unkind
I ain't even gonna try to change your mind
Love me now or be on your way
If you go be gone to stay

Oh Linda, you made me grieve
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling down from your sky

Oh gal, don't you say goodbye
Now that I need you by my side
You can have everything I own
Take everything but a-come on home

Oh gal, don't you say so long
I feel like I could die
Look out baby the moon is falling down from your sky

Oh gal, don't you do me wrong
I'm gonna sing you a goodbye song
Sing the song that's most unkind
I ain't even gonna try to change your mind
