Текст пісні
Stumblin' around in the pitch black dark
Big ol' hole right through my heart
Waitin' on the first sweet sign of dawn
I never found any sacred ground
In this Godforsaken town
Won't you give me some light good Lord, and get me gone?
Get me gone like a shootin' star
Just as fast, and just as far
Gone like the long-lost love in a country song
Gone like whiskey, gone like broke
Straight outta here like wind-blown smoke
Won't you give me some light, good Lord, and get me gone?
I left a good woman I really loved
For the arms of lady luck
Now the kiss is cold and bitter on my tongue
You warm the marrow in these bones
And while you got your big light on
Shine it on the road home, and get me gone
Get me gone like a shootin' star
Just as fast, and just as far
Gone like the long-lost love in a country song
Gone like whiskey, gone like broke
Straight outta here like wind-blown smoke
Won't you give me some light, good Lord, and get me gone?
Get me gone like a shootin' star
Just as fast, and just as far
Gone like the long-lost love in a country song
Gone like whiskey, gone like broke
Straight outta here like wind-blown smoke
Won't you give me some light, good Lord, and get me gone?
