Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard a song 'bout a ramblin' man
Bought a guitar and I started a band
I got a gig at the local Am Vet
I was gone and I ain't back yet
[Verse 2]
'69 bored out and jacked up
A quarter mile, that was all it was
I burned the cool off of that Corvette
And I was gone and I ain't back yet
[Verse 3]
Lookin' back at the moments, black and white
I wouldn't change a thing that changed my life
For the worse, for the better
Man, I was gone, gone forever
[Verse 4]
She was a cut offs pepper-sauce queen
Man, we were matches and gasoline
First taste of love, never will forget
I was gone and I ain't back yet
I was gone, gone, and I ain't back yet
[Verse 5]
Lookin' back at the moments, black and white
I wouldn't change a thing that changed my life
For the worse, for the better
Man, I was gone, gone forever
[Verse 6]
The laughs, the smiles, the trials, the tears
It's hard to hate what got me here
What got me here
[Verse 7]
She was a straight out of Hollywood smile
We missed it all by a country mile
Went out one night for some cigarettes
And I was gone and I ain't back yet
[Verse 8]
I was gone, gone, and I ain't back yet
I was gone and I ain't back, ain't back, ain't back yet
(Gone) Ain't back yet
I was gone and I ain't back yet
I was gone and I ain't back yet
I was gone, gone, and I ain't back yet
[Verse 9]
(Gone) Ain't back yet
(Gone) Ain't back yet
(Gone) Ain't back yet
(Gone) Ain't back yet
(Gone) Ain't back yet
