Gone On - Robert Earl Keen

Had a girl long ago

She was fast and I was slow

I tried to love her

She gone on

I wrote her letters, called her freinds

They say that true love never ends

I’m here to tell ya

She gone on

It’s like a racetrack everyday

Movin' it on up or get outta the way

Don’t wait too late to pull me along

(Instrumental)

I had a buddy, we had a few

He liked to talk about the ring-dang-do

It liked to kill him

He gone on

We got together the other year

He found religion, I found a beer

???

to tell ya

He gone on

That’s my story, that’s my song

Somebody asks ya where I’m gone

You can tell 'em

He gone on
