Lyrics to Lovesick Town...
Four Legs Good
Gone Gone Gone
back when them boots were made for walking
it was up hill both ways to school
through 12 foot drifts our lives were measured
heel to toe and soul to shoe
we had 15 brothers and 15 sisters
all those empty mouths to feed
we had to stop the oldest from eating the youngest
or nobody here would ever succeed
succeed in wondering (just wonderin')
what the hell you're doing here
the future is where it's at but it won't be here for years
you keep on waiting (just waiting)
for the real thing to come along
but when it finally gets here you're gonna be... gone gone gone
your sitting there in a living room chair
your dentist comes in and you prepare
to meet the pain no one can bare
rusty tools in hand and no drinks to spare
on a frosty morning you awake in your bed
your horse is sleeping beside your head
you sneak out to the buggy plug it into the shed
and wish they'd invent the car instead
the only thing good about the good old days
is they're gone gone gone
yes they're gone so shut up and lets move on
everyone pines for a simpler time
but the world keeps turning on
you hear it everyday and it's a popular wine
that it's gone gone gone
you keep on hoping (and praying)
everything's gonna work out right
you can only live in the past if the future is out of sight
you keep on waiting (just waiting)
for the real thing to come along
but when it finally gets here you're gonna be... gone gone gone
