Gone Baby, Don't Be Long Songtext
von Erykah Badu

As the winds blows in passing
Baby, I think I′m falling in love with you
Where you go, when you go, baby, what you do?
You know you've got to get your hustle on (hey)

So, gone, baby gone, baby don′t be long (hey)
Gone baby, gone baby, don't be long
Ooh, ooh, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long
Gone baby, gone baby, don′t be gone

When you go out, what′s your style baby? What's the rush?
You got me felling like a girl with the faintest crush (hey)
When you go, where you go, boy I miss you much (much)
But I know you got to get your hustle on

So, gone (gone) so, gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long
So, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long (yeah)
Ooh, ooh, gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long (yeah)
I know you got to get your hustle on (on, on, on)


(So, gone) so, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long (gone baby)
Gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long
Ooh, ooh, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long
I know you've got to get your hustle on (ooh)

I can′t wait (wait) to see what you do
It′s not too much (no) to follow you through
But I can't wait to see what you be
You gon′ be here 'cause I believe

So don′t go babe (baby)
There is only one thing I'm still asking
Why is it, I feel you masking?
If it′s love that you feel is really real
And I know you gotta get your hustle on (baby)
You laugh when you ask, baby what's the rush (ok baby)
When we touch, I wanna know, is it love or lust? Oh (oh)
'Cause I feel like a girl with the faintest crush
And I know you′ve got to get your hustle on (ohh)

So, gone (gone) so, gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long (gone baby)
So, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long (no, oh, baby)
Ooh, ooh, gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long (yeah)
You gone baby, gone baby (get yo' hustle on) don′t be long (hustle on)


I can't wait to see how you move (how you move)
Well, I do watch, you do what you do (what you do, what you do)
I can′t wait to see what you be
You gon' be here 'cause I believe, so don′t go, baby

Gone baby, gone baby, don′t be long
Ooh, ooh, gone baby, gone baby, don't be long (oh, oh, baby, baby)
Ooh, ooh, gone baby (go baby, don′t you know? Ooh, ahh, ahh)
Nah, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, oh, ooh
Go baby, don't you know? Aah, aah, ooh, ooh
Go baby, don′t you know?
