Get Gone

When i was a young boy, it weren't too late

I had me a buick, was a '48

Yeah, tons and tons of rollin' steel

With a long black hoad and four big wheels.



Well, i worked so hard i flunked out of school

And everybody said i was a teenage fool

Meanwhile i wrote me a new set of rules

'bout how to get gone and how to be cool.



Well, we hit the road like a ton o' bricks

With an old guitar and a few hot licks

We were rockin' in the city and rockin' in the sticks

Didn't make much money but we had a lotta kicks.



Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.



Well, then one day a city slicker walked up

Said, son, i'm gonna make you a million bucks

Gonna fly around the country in a big ol' plane

Gonna get a lotta drugs, gonna feel no pain.



Well, i knew we were breakin' that highway rule

When we pulled outta town a little low on fuel

That big ol' plane fell from the sky

Me and the boys kissed the world goodbye

Yeah, me and the boys kissed the world goodbye.



Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone.
