He's Gone
---------
Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb
You know better but I know him.
Like I told you, what I said,
Steal your face right off your head.
Now he's gone, now he's gone
Lord he's gone, he's gone.
Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track
He's gone, he's gone
Nothin's gonna bring him back
He's gone.
Nine mile skid on a ten mile ride,
Hot as a pistol but cool inside.
Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a bind,
Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile.
Now he's gone, now he's gone
Lord he's gone, he's gone.
Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track
He's gone, he's gone
Nothin's gonna bring him back
He's gone.
Going where the wind don't blow so strange,
Maybe off on some high cold mountain chain.
Lost one round but the price wasn't anything,
A knife in the back and more of the same.
Same old rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb
you know better but I know him.
Like I told you, what I say
Steal your face right off your head.
Now he's gone, now he's gone
Lord he's gone, he's gone.
Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track
He's gone, he's gone
Nothin's gonna bring him back
He's gone.
Ohoo nothin's gonna bring him back
Ohoo nothin's gonna bring him back
Ohoo nothin's gonna bring him back
Ohoo nothin's gonna bring him back. |
