Gone Away-
Where has my baby gone
It’s been far too long
That my Micheal’s has gone away
He’s left one day, oh, he went far away
Far away, far away
Gone away
Mother’s baby boy;
Has gone away yea, oh
Where has he gone
Been looking for him for so long
Far way, far away
Gone away
Mother’s baby boy
Where has he gone
Gone today, yea, yeah
Yesterday ooh, ooh yea
Castaway far away gone away run ran away he’s gone astray
Mother’s baby boy;
Has gone away yea, oh
Where has he gone
Been looking for him for so long
Far way, far away
Gone away
Mother’s baby boy
Where has he gone
Love has been denied
I stood by the riverside
I had payed the price
I suffered long and sacrifice
Oh my heart had lived twice
Pump, pump, pump beats my heart
He’s gone away
He was my baby grown up
He left one day
He went far away
Mother’s baby boy;
Has gone away yea, oh
Where has he gone
Been looking for him for so long
Far way, far away
Gone away
Mother’s baby boy
Where has he gone
Gone today, yea, yeah
Yesterday ooh, ooh yea
Castaway far away gone away run ran away he’s gone astray
Gone away
