Lyrics
My baby left me by the side of the road Now I'm just left here with a bag full of clothes As she said "Boy, you'd best be gone, gone by morning" Into the night I'll lift my heels as they drag Kick up the dust and, no, I'm not coming back And I'll say "Girl, yes I'll be gone, gone by morning" December rain it gon' soak me to my skin It'll drown me out, but it won't wash away my sins I'll pray, I'll pray for a break within the clouds I'll say "December rain, I'm out" My baby told me with no sign of regret In one hand a gun, in one a lit cigarette As she said "Boy, you will be gone, gone by morning" December rain it gon' soak me to my skin It'll drown me out, but it won't wash away my sins I'll pray, I'll pray for a break within the clouds I'll say "December rain, I'm out" She said "I'm leaving now" and I said "Don't go" But she said "I'm better off alone" She said "I'm leaving now" and I said "Don't go" But she will not put all of her cards into my hands because she knows December rain it gon' soak me to my skin It'll drown me out, but it won't wash away my sins I'll pray, I'll pray for a break within the clouds I'll say "December rain, I'm out"
