Girls have been a weakness all of my life But I made a big mistake and I took one for a wife I've thought that she was different I could settle down But she won't and I didn't by now I'm leavin' town This time tomorrow I'll be gone this time tomorrow I'll be gone I'll be a datin' those southern belles there'll be no days of blue All the queens in New Orleans I'll get around with you When sun went down I'll come back up I'll be countin' every hour Till I'm back headin' south for sweet sweet magnolia flowers This time tomorrow I'll be gone this time tomorrow I'll be gone This time tomorrow I'll be gone this time tomorrow I'll be gone
