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 And I was gone and I ain't back yet ♪ '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 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 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 Lookin' back at the moments, black white I wouldn't change a thing that changed my life For the worse, for the better Man, I was gone, gone forever The laughs, the smiles, the trials, the tears It's hard to hate what got me here What got me here 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 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 And 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 (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) (Ain't back yet)
