Modern Man Blues Live by 10cc Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm tired Lord and I'm drawn
And I'm chilled right to the bone
I crawled home from my work
And this note said she was gone
Said your dinner's in the cat
And your love is out the door
I'm goin' back to my momma
Oh I don't want you no more, no more
Said she don't want me no more
She's gone back to her momma
Said she's never never comin' back no more (That's what she said)
[Verse 2]
Now a man can take so much
And only heaven knows his limit
But a naggin' bitchin' woman
Digs a hole and puts him in it
A sophisticated man
Needs a little something on the side
So what you don't get at home
You've gotta get outside, hеy
[Chorus]
She's gone
I'm spending all of my monеy (Hey)
She's gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey
She's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone
[Verse 3]
Now time goes marching on
And it won't wait for you
You've gotta get it when it's offered
Go out and get it when it's due
Now a man can move much faster
Without a millstone around his neck
So if you get the chance to lose it
You've gotta drop it and run like heck, hey
[Chorus]
She's gone
I'm spending all of my money (Yeah)
She's gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey (Hey)
She's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone
She's gone, gone
I'm spending all of my money (Yeah)
She's gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey
She's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone
Alright
[Guitar Solo 1, Piano Solo, Guitar Solo 2, and Guitar Duet]
[Chorus]
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I'm spending all of my money (Yeah)
She's gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey
She's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I'm so glad that woman's gone (Alright)
She's gone, gone
I'm spending all of my money (Yeah)
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey (Yeah)
She's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone (Gone gone gone gone)
She's gone, gone
I'm spending all of my money
She's gone, gone, gone
And I can swing with my honey
Yeah, she's gone, gone
I'm so glad that woman's gone
I'm tired Lord and I'm drawn
And I'm chilled right to the bone
I crawled home from my work
And this note said she was gone
Said your dinner's in the cat
And your love is out the door
I'm goin' back to my momma
Oh I don't want you no more, no more
Said she don't want me no more
She's gone back to her momma
Said she's never never comin' back no more (That's what she said)
