He`s Gone

Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, you know better but I know him. Like I told you, what I said, Steal your face right off your head. Now he`s gone, now he`s gone, Lord he`s gone, he`s gone. Like a steam locomotive, rollin` down the track He`s gone, gone, nothin`s gonna bring him back...He`s gone. Nine mile skid on a ten mile ride, hot as a pistol but cool inside. Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a pile, Nothin` left to do but smile, smile, smile!!!! Now he`s gone, now he`s gone Lord he`s gone, he`s gone. Like a steam locomotive, rollin` down the track He`s gone, gone, nothin`s gonna bring him back...He`s gone. Goin` where the wind don`t blow so strange, Maybe off on some high cold mountain chain. Lost one round but the price wasn`t anything, A knife in the back and more of the same. Same old, rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, You know better but I know him. Like I told you, what I said, Steal your face right off your head. Now he`s gone, now he`s gone Lord he`s gone, he`s gone. Like a steam locomotive, rollin` down the track He`s gone, gone, nothin`s gonna bring him back...He`s gone. Ooh, nothin`s gonna bring him back.
