Go on and leave me like another weed in your garden
Nothing I can say is gonna make you stay
Don't call me when you know the flowers are gone and
Your skies are cloudy and gray

It ain't wrong to want a little more sunshine
I ain't ashamed to want a little more rain
I ain't gonna beg, no, I ain't gonna plead no more
You ain't never given me one good thing to beg for

Well, go on and leave me like another weed in your garden
Nothing I can say is gonna make you stay
Don't call me when you know the flowers are gone and
Your skies are cloudy and gray

I'm so tired of all your messing round, messing round
Nothing gonna grow between you and I
I gotta go, honey, and leave this town, leave this town
Find some place where my roots grow right

Go on and leave me like another weed in your garden
Nothing I can say is gonna make you stay
Don't call me when you know the flowers are gone and
Your skies are cloudy and gray

It's a long way from here to New York City
It's a long way from here to Shanghai
I don't care anymore, I've heard it all before
Everything you say is just lies, lies, lies

Go on and leave me like another weed in your garden
Nothing I can say is gonna make you stay
Don't call me when you know the flowers are gone and
Your skies are cloudy and gray
