Watching old video tapes of the old early 1900's blues men. Heard "Leave me" and thought it was a unique angle, as opposed to the usual, 'DON'T leave me' theme.

"Leave Me" Copyright April 2, 2020 by Gary E. Andrews
(Chorus)
Leave Me! You don't have to sta-a-ay!
Leave Me! Get out of my wa-a-ay!
Go on and Leave Me!
You never loved me, anyway!

(Verse I)
You spent all my money!
You wasted all my time!
You just think it's funny!
I think it's a crime!

Leave Me! You don't have to sta-a-ay!
Leave Me! Get out of my wa-a-ay!
Go on and Leave Me!
You never loved me, anyway!

(Verse II)
You ran off with my best friend!
You drove off with my car!
You've been gone thirty days!
Who knows where you are?

Leave Me! You don't have to sta-a-ay!
Leave Me! Get out of my wa-a-ay!
Go on and Leave Me!
You never loved me, anyway!

(Verse III)
They fount my car in Memphis,
jacked up on the street,
caught yo' pretty ass walkin',
in yo' stocking feet! Ha! Ha!

Leave Me! You don't have to sta-a-ay!
Leave Me! Get out of my wa-a-ay!
Go on and Leave Me!
You never loved me, anyway!

(Verse IV)
Who's that scratchin' at my door?
You kids get off my porch!
Ooo! It's you baby,
Lookin' hot enough to scorch!

(Coda)
Leave Me! Stop it! Stop it!
You don't have to sta-a-ay!
Leave Me! Quit! Quit ya fool!
Get out of my wa-a-ay!
Go on and Leave Me!
You never loved me, anyway!

(This is the kind of Song you could write a lot of Verses to and then pick the ones you think are best.)
