I'm a long gone that's what I'll be
Gonna find me a girl and a brand new world
I'll forget about you you'll forget about me

Well you're leavin' me you ain't comin' back
You're goin' to live across the tracks
Go right ahead that's what you like
Ain't gonna find nothin' but an empty house if you ever come back
I'm a long gone
[ steel ]
Well a big white house with flower beds
And satin pillows underneath the head
Well I cross the tracks the money runs free
Run right along to be fancy free you don't worry bout me
I'm a long gone
I'm a long gone
