Get Gone

[Verse 1]

When I was a young boy, it weren't too late

I had me a Buick, was a '48

'Bout a ton and a half of rolling steel

With a long black hood and four big wheels

Well, I worked so hard I flunked out of school

Everybody said I was a teenage fool

Meanwhile I wrote me a new set of rules

'Bout how to get gone and how to be cool

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, get it, get it

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Well, my mama told me I was living in a dream

I kept polishing my road machine

Well, the motor was hot and the chrome was clean

I knew I had to make that highway scene, yeah

Well, we hit the road like a ton o' bricks

Like an old guitar and a few hot licks

We were rockin' in the city and rockin' in the sticks

Didn't make much money but we had a lotta kicks, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Get it, get it, get it

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Well, a city slicker walked up and said

"Son, I'm gonna make you a million bucks

Gonna fly around the country in a big ol' plane

Gonna eat a lotta drugs, gonna feel no pain"

Well, we rocked all day and we rocked all night

Ain't nothing we could do that we couldn't do right

And everywhere we went, the women started a fight

With that big ol' plane waiting for one more flight

[Chorus]

Get it, get it

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

[Verse 4]

Well, I knew we were breakin' that highway rule

When we pulled outta town a little low on fuel

That big ol' plane fell out of the sky

Me and the boys kissed the world goodbye

Yeah, me and the boys kissed the world goodbye

Goodbye

[Outro]

Get it, get it, get it, get it

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone, get gone

Get gone, oh yeah, get gone

Get gone
