Long Gone

I'll be gone, for so long
Don't you come around
Got me runnin' all around
Where I am runnin' I won't be found
Oh no no no no no
Said you loved me once last time
I ran so fast I blew your mind
Oh no no no no no
Now it's time to go find
What I had on my mind
Oh no no no no no
Sadly it was never you,
I'd rather have sex with my shoe
Oh no no no no no
I'll be gone, for so long
Don't you come around
I'll be gone, for so long
Don't you come around
Followed me right up a tree,
And all the way down to Tennessee
Oh no no no no no
It was time to give it up,
So I ran her over with my truck
I'll never be found
I'll be gone, for so long
Don't you come around
I'll be gone, for so long
Don't you come around
