WHEN WILL I BE GONE


that’s right I’m mighty mighty country, wise crack bored with everything’ to say
sittin’ ‘round roadmaps tore up, I’m needin’ to get away
that small town rollin’ crossroad, right past me on the porch
left here, cold beer thinkin’ on, when will I be gone, when will I be gone


my life is like a break up song, wanna end up somewhere havin’ fun
freewheel, never blue, looks in my eye if you only knew
wanna be someone’s excuse
for what they think is finally lettin’ go
on this moonrise, I’ve got nothin’ to show

Chorus


I’m tired of doubts and sad go ‘rounds
with lightnin’ shadow showers at dark
wanna man, not a fool, kissin’ on me like a Tennessee mule
ain’t gonna be a pet name girl I’m past belief, getting’ me low
on this moonrise, I’ve got nothin’ to show


Chorus

as I look up at the stars, I’m a stranger to this world
and I deserve to be the letting go girl


I wanna drive ‘till mornin’ comes, then keep on movin’ with getaway dust
a honey soul goin’ by, fence row flowers in towns that died
I wanna be at the party now, throw down drinkin’ with everyone I know
but on this moonrise, I’ve got nothin’ to show


Chorus
