Текст The Chicks — Long Time Gone

Daddy sits on the front porch swingin’

Look in’ out on a bacon field

Used to be filled with burning tobacco

Now he knows it never will

My brother found work in Indiana

Sisters a nurse at the old folks home

Momma still cooking too much for supper

And me I’ve been a long time gone

Baby long time gone

No I aint hoed a row since I don’t know when

Long time gone

And I aint comin’ back again

Amilia plays that old church piano

Sittin’ out on her daddy’s farm

She always thought that we’d be together

Lord I never meant to do her harm

Said she could her me singin in the choir

Me I heard another song

I caught wind and hit the road runnin’

And lord i’ve been long time gone

Baby long time gone

Lord i aint had a purse since I don’t know when

Long time gone And it aint commin’ back again

Now me I went to Nashville

Trying to beat the big deal

Playing down to Broadway

Getin’ in the ahrd way

Livin’ from a tip jar

Sleepin’ in mah car

Huggin’ my guitar ya im gonna be a staaaar

Now me until your singin’ every sunday

Watchin’ the children in the garden grove

Listen to the radio to hear what’s cookin’

But the music aint got… NO SOUL!

Now they sound tired but they don’t sound haggard

They got money but they don;t got cash

They got Junior but they don;t got Hank

I thank

I thank

I thank the rest is…

Long time gone

No I aint hit the roof since i don’t know when

Long time gone

And it aint commin’ back

I said Long time gone

No I aint parked a Ford since I don’t know when

Long time gone

And it aint commin’ back agaiiiin

I said a long time, long time, long time gone

Oh it’s been a long time Long time, long time, long time gooooone

Oh it’s been a long

Tiiiiime

Gooooone

Long time, long time, long time gone… yea yea!
