"I'll Be Doggone" is a 1965 song recorded by the American soul singer Marvin Gaye and released on the Tamla label.

The song talks about how a man tells his woman that he'll be "doggone" about simple things but if she did him wrong that he'd be "long gone".

The song was co-written by Robinson's fellow Miracles members Pete Moore and Marv Tarplin.

[2] Billboard described "I'll Be Doggone" as a "powerful follow-up to 'How Sweet It Is,'" stating that "Gaye's wailing vocal performance is pitted against a driving dance beat backing.

"[5] The song has since gone and been recorded by several other artists, including Paul Revere & the Raiders, Albert King and Solomon Burke.

"I'll Be Doggone" is notable because it was one of Tages first singles to feature bassist Göran Lagerberg on lead vocals, in contrast with regular vocalist Tommy Blom.

It was the group's antepenultimate rhythm and blues single (before "Dancing in the Street"[16] and "Doctor Feel-Good",[17] both in 1967 and 1968 respectively) and one of their last cover songs; almost all material after "I'll Be Doggone" are original compositions.
