I heard a song 'bout a ramblin' man

Bought a guitar and I started a band

I got a gig at the local am vet

I was gone and I ain't back yet.

'69 bored, out and jacked up

A quarter mile that was all it was

I burned the cool off of that corvette

And I was gone and I ain't back yet.

Lookin' back at the moments, black and white

I wouldn't change a thing that changed my life

For the worse, for the better

Man, I was gone, gone forever.

She was a cut offs pepper sauce queen

Man, we were matches and gasoline

First taste of love never will forget

I was gone and I ain't back yet

I was gone, gone and I ain't back yet.

Lookin' back at the moments, black white.

I wouldn't change a thing that changed my life

For the worse, for the better

Man, I was gone, gone forever

The laughs, the smiles, the trials, the tears

It's hard to hate what got me here

What got me here.

She was a straight out of hollywood smile

We missed it all by a country mile

Went out one night for some cigarettes

And I was gone and I ain't back yet.

I was gone, gone and I ain't back yet

I was gone and I ain't back

Ain't back, ain't back yet.

I was gone and I ain't back yet

I was gone and I ain't back yet

I was gone, gone and I ain't back yet.
