Leavin' Seems to Be the Goin' Thing - Trick Pony

Three months ago Tom and Becky Jones had a fight

She left hi overnight

Then my next-door neighbor said his woman gave him fits

He up and called it quits

The couple down the block barely finished their house

I learned this mornin' he’s already moved out

I don’t like what’s goin' down

Spreadin' like fire all over this town

Up and gone has done caught on

How else do you explain

Leavin' seems to be the goin' thing

It’s the goin' thing

Now here I am on this front porch tryin' to understand

This letter in my hand

You left it sittin' on the table when you went for a walk

It said we need to talk

You can understand my concern

I’m thinkin' maybe it’s my turn

I don’t like what’s goin' down

Spreadin' like fire all over this town

Up and gone has done caught on

How else do you explain

Leavin' seems to be the goin' thing

It’s the goin' thing

I’m not the kind to overreact

But you can’t deny the cold hard facts

I don’t like what’s goin' down

Spreadin' like fire all over this town

Up and gone has done caught on

How else do you explain

Leavin' seems to be the goin' thing

It’s the goin' thing
