Lyrics
I asked the blood red sun in the sky
Why did my handsome gal leave me here to cry
Where have you gone, where have you gone
I drove my taxi all over town
Didn't find my handsome gal she's no where to be found
Where have you gone, where have you gone
Well, Operator here's my last dime
Ring up my handsome gal before there's a crime
Where have you gone, where have you gone
Heard them talking you've gone away
Tell me my handsome gal is it true what they say
Where have you gone, where have you gone
Well I ain't no sportin' man I don't lead that life
Just want my handsome gal to be my wife
Where have you gone, where have you gone
Called the state militia the police too
Go find my handsome gal and bring her here when you're thru
Where have you gone, where have you gone
I looked to the Devil and God above
Who got my handsome gal let go of my love
Where have you gone, where have you gone
Ain't seen no woman pretty as you
Oh, oh my handsome gal well ain't I handsome too
Where have you gone, where have you gone
