That reminds me of " How Can I Miss You, If You Won't Go Away" by Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks 
Here's a (song) title in a similar vein: " if You Leave Me, Can I Come Too" by Mental As Anything

I wanted to mention that one also. It's funny.
I also like titles like "That's Another Fine Tune You Got Me Into". I think it was from Gilgamesh.

Exactly! I don't admire those titles individually so much as because it creates a unified thread from album to album... ...or maybe these musicians were just unimaginative and lazy!
