Long Gone

(альбом: Eddie Rabbitt - 1975)

Gonna jump on a Greyhound bus down to New Orleans
Gonna pack my last clean shirt and a pair of jeans
Gonna quit my job at the foundry, I never liked it anyway
And I'm gonna be long gone today

And you can tell your mommy and daddy that I sure am sorry
But I don't believe I'll fit into your plans right now
Besides, I'm ten years older than you, honey
Don't you see what I'm trying to say?
I'm gonna be long gone today

Long gone
Out of your life in a flash
Long gone
'Cause the traveling man's kinda love, honey, just don't last

And when you open up your pretty blue eyes tomorrow morning
You're gonna feel the warm sunshine healing all your pain
So don't beat down on me, darling, I loved you yesterday
But I'm gonna be long gone today

Long gone
Out of your life in a flash
Long gone
'Cause the traveling man's kinda love, honey, just don't last

And when you open up your pretty blue eyes tomorrow morning
You're gonna feel the warm sunshine healing all your pain
So don't beat down on me, darling, I loved you yesterday
But I'm gonna be long gone today
Yes, I'm gonna be long gone today
Honey, I'm gonna be long gone today
Hey, hey, hey
