Long Gone Songtext
von Blaze Foley

Only kind of song that I can sing is a blues song
When everything is wrong, ain′t no happy song
Just a blues song
I mess around again, got the hook sunk in
I don't wanna die drownin′, so I guess I better swim

You're gonna wish someday I'd be back your way
I′ll be long gone


When I give myself, I give all of me
And you may not believe me, baby, but you wait and see
You′re gonna wonder where I am someday, but you won't know
I got ants in my britches, been turnin′ pretty women down
I know I may be funny, don't you treat me like a clown

You′re gonna wish someday I'd be back your way
I′ll be long gone

Love you have for me, hide where I won't see
But I see it
I know I could be wrong, I keep hangin' on
′Cause I feel it
Why don′t you quit closin' up your door and let me stay with you?
I know I may be crazy, but my love is true

You′re gonna wish someday I'd be back your way
I′ll be long gone
