You're Gonna miss me when I'm gone
Said I?d buy you a coat and a new red hat

Said High-class lady so debonair
Well High-class lady so debonair
Well all the ones I've never met and every other last one who ain't gone yet
High-class lady so debonair
Chorus

Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes
Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes
There?s a hole down in my soul that couldn?t be filled by a thousand more
Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes
Chorus 2:
You're Gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're Gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're Gonna miss the way I sang your song
You're Gonna miss me when I'm gone
