Lyrics Turnpike Troubadours

Turnpike Troubadours

Gone Gone Gone

You had your hands on the wheel

I stood on the street 'neath the telephone lines

Well you took everything you could steal

You came & you went like a thief in the night

And I ran for the hills

so you couldn't kill me

but damn you cut close to the bone

You can call me a fool

you can call me alone

call me gone gone gone

and this heavy old heart

it's as steady as stone

call me gone gone gone

Well the suns gonna rise in the east

and I'm bound to stumble on a Saturday night

passion is painful but it's free

love is a mean hateful business sometimes

And I ran for the hills

so you couldn't kill me

but damn you cut close to the bone

I throw the horses some feed

I warm my hands up to a hickory fire

I'm hanging on to the heat

Love is a cold institution sometimes

and I'm all full of guilt

and my heart is all black

selling my soul for a pat on the back

you can call me a fool

you can call me alone

call me gone gone gone

call me gone gone gone

call me gone gone gone
