Gone

Here we talkin'
Gone, gone, gone, gone
Here we cryin'
Gone, gone, gone, gone

[Verse 1]
Seems like yesterday when I saw myself
With enough money to last a little while
Talk about this and that, talk about bills and shit
Till you're left with a hole in your pocket and a lot to learn

[Chorus]
My money's gone, gone
Gone to the government
Gone to pay the rent
I said it's gone, yeah, gone
(Gone) Waking up every day
(Gone) To see it fly away

[Verse 2]
Going back a while, I was just a boy
Hanging out with some guys that I considered friends
Talk about changing ways, look at them today
Life is a beer can, love is a four-letter word

[Chorus]
My friends are gone, gone
(Gone) Left me on my own
(Gone) Making myself a home
I said they're gone, uhm, gone
(Gone) Life in a public bar
(Gone) Love in the back of a car

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
In my lonely room I have loved and lost
I have seen some women pass my way
In the best of times they have lingered on
And I have fallen, given myself away

[Chorus]
But now they're gone, uhm, gone
Gone to the lovers' sky
Gone with an evil eye
Said they're gone, oh, gone
(Gone) Okay, just the same
(Gone) Ready to begin again, hey

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Yeah, we all live our lives looking at the clock
Keeping up with the next guy, wanna be a richer man
Talk about me and mine, talk about he and his
In the end, you have to face up to the man

[Chorus]
We'll all be gone, ugh, gone
Gone to where you win or lose
Gone to pay our dues
I said we're gone, uhm, gone
(Gone) Better not turn away
(Gone) Remember the judgement day

[Instrumental Fade Out/Ad-Libs]
