I packed my bag, I picked a fight
I left for good just the other night
I don't feel light like I thought it would
I can't go home like I wished I could
'Cause something's up, I can tell
She's takin' my leaving just a little too well
She ain't been sufferin' by herself, since I've been gone
Yeah, my baby's got a brand new something goin' on
I get dressed up, I go downtown
I do my best just to track her down
Our old friends, Lord they don't say much
She's out of town and she's out of touch
'Cause something's up, I can tell
She's takin' my leaving just a little too well
She ain't been sufferin' by herself, since I've been gone
Yeah, my baby's got a brand new something goin' on
Ain't no note, ain't no news
Ain't no clothes and there ain't no shoes
There ain't no car left in the drive
There ain't woman livin' here tonight
'Cause something's up, I can tell
She's takin' my leaving just a little too well
She ain't been sufferin' by herself, since I've been gone
Oh, my baby's got a brand new something goin' on
Something's up, I can tell
She's takin' my leaving just a little too well
She ain't been sufferin' by herself, since I've been gone
Oh, my baby's got a brand new something
Yo, my baby's got a brand new something goin' on
Here she comes
Ha, there she goes
