Lyrics
LONG GONERS
Tee shirt on the lamp shade
Fire in the bed
Time?s running out babe
Don?t rest your pretty head
When the pillow talk is over
And that tender kiss runs dry
He?s gonna slip out like a jewel thief
Leavin? the scene of the crime
He?s one of those...
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Small town born Ohio
Big time in his sights
Beg, steal or borrow
On a tumbleweed ride
Don?t you stand there on the doorstep
Don?t will that phone to ring
When the highway wind comes howlin?
You can shiver or spread your wings
And he?s one of those...
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Note taped to the lampshade
Waiting to be found
4 lines tell the story
4 lines crash it down
?It?s been too long for tryin? harder
And too late to ask me why
Honey I can?t fight the battle
But I still got strength to fly?
She?s one of those...
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Long Goners
Baby don?t you blink an eye
Long Goners
Gone before you say goodbye
Bye Bye
