Whoa Nellie
I think this is the end
You said you were my woman
You swore to be my friend
But you never
Never could be mine
All your runnin’ ‘round and ‘round
Has tripped you up this time

Whoa, Nellie
It’s so nice that you came home
I been waitin’ here since midnight
Cryin’ all alone
I forgave you
So many times before
But now I packed up all your bags
And I piled them by the door
Whoa, Nellie, Nellie

There were nights I changed my mind
And told you you could stay
Well, that ain’t gonna happen now
No how, no way

[SOLO]

You could take a greyhound bus
To LA or Kankakee
I hope that you can find someplace
Somewhere far from me

Whoa, Nellie
It’s time for you to go
When you hit the highway
Write me from the road
But never
Come back here again
Whoa, Nellie
This finally is the end
Whoa, Nellie
This finally is the
Whoa, Nellie, Nellie
