I strapped that old gun to the side of my hip 
I could feel the cold steel on my fingertips 
And I’m gone
All the way gone
I ain’t got no money to speak of
But I’d kiss it away if I did anyway, and I’m gone

Just as the weather had started to shift
She said together was not how we fit
So I’m gone
All the way gone
Ain’t nobody here wanna get with
Some dirty old redneck with a rap sheet and tattoos, I’m gone

Oh, I don’t know if I’ll ever go home
I don’t know if I’ll ever go home (X2)

Well I passed this town on the way in to drift
My past come around now it’s high time I split 
So I’m gone
All the way gone
I’ll stay if they tell me to stay here
I’ll go if they leave me alone
Call this home or I’m gone

Sign on the window says “open at ten”
I’m hungry at seven, I’ve got to come in
Or I’m gone
All the way gone 
I’m wearing in the clothes of my brother 
We carried the rose of my mother 
I love her, I’m gone

He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!”

— John 19:26-27
