shorty's long gone

there's a rumor going round it's all over town

somethin' really heavy's done went down

long legged betty's trickin' out her clothes

puttin' on her makeup and her pantyhose

there's full moon freddie he's a gettin' ready

the moon is really shinin' bright

but shorty ain't around he's nowhere to be found

he's usually here by this time of night

yeh

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't comin' back and he ain't goin' home

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't around here he just disappeared

and now he's gone ya'll

full moon freddie loved long legged betty

wasn't nuthin' ever come between 'em

he gave the girl everything she wanted

and treated betty just like his queen ya'll

but freddie caught betty makin' eyes at shorty

and didn't like what he saw

but betty had style and the lure of her smile

was drivin' little shorty up the wall

yeh

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't comin' back and he ain't goin' home

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't around here he just disappeared

now he's gone

no sense in looking for shorty he ain't around awe

no sense in looking for shorty he can't be found no no

yeh

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't comin' back and he ain't goin' home

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't around here he just disappeared

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't comin' back and he ain't goin' home

he's long gone; shorty's long gone

he ain't around here he just disappeared

now he's gone ya'll

no sense in looking for shorty he ain't around naw

no sense in looking for shorty he's done left town ya'll

shorty's long gone
