You’re Gonna Miss Me Songtext
von The Band of Heathens

I was born in a post-romantic age
I was born in a post-romantic age
I don′t paint or compose
I was born in a post-romantic age
I was born in a post-romantic age
I don't paint or compose
Two things I don′t do no more
I was born in a post romantic age

I used to be a big old coal steel rail
I used to be a big old coal steel rail
I'd paint the sky all thick and black
Rolling thunder on down the track
I used to be a big old coal steel rail

You're Gonna miss me when I′m gone
You′re Gonna miss me when I'm gone
You′re Gonna miss the way I said your name
You're Gonna miss me when I′m gone


I'd buy you a coat and a new red hat
Buy you a coat and a new red hat
I′d put you in the finest cars
With all the men who smoke cigars
I'd buy you a coat and a new red hat

High-class lady so debonair
High-class lady so debonair
All the ones I've never met
And all the ones who ain′t gone yet
High-class lady so debonair

You′re Gonna miss me when I'm gone
You′re Gonna miss me when I'm gone
You′re Gonna miss the way I said your name
You're Gonna miss me when I′m gone

Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes
Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes
There's a hole down in my soul
That couldn't be filled by a thousand more
Otis Redding sang the blues sometimes

You′re Gonna miss me when I′m gone
You're Gonna miss me when I′m gone
You're Gonna miss the way I sang your song
You′re Gonna miss me when I'm gone
