I've been hanging around this town too long a time
There's nothing left to hold me here
Or keep me satisfied
I'll shake the dust off of these boots
And move along
And you'll wake up to find that I'm
I'm gone baby gone
Gone baby gone
Just like smoke on the wind
Gone baby gone
Before my welcome wears thin
There's nothing that you've done and nothing you can say
I don't know where I'm heading but
I must be on my way
So when you see those taillights
Fade into the dawn
Then you'll know for sure that
I'm gone baby gone
Gone baby gone
Just like smoke on the wind
Gone baby gone
Before my welcome wears thin
It seems to be my destiny
To always move along
As soon as I get comfortable
I feel like I don't belong
I've been hanging around this town too long a time
There's nothing left to hold me here
Or keep me satisfied
So when you see those taillights
Fade into the dawn
Then you'll know for sure that
I'm gone baby gone
Gone baby gone
Just like smoke in the wind
Gone baby gone
Before my welcome wears thin
Gone baby gone
Just like a thief in the night
Gone Baby Gone
Before the dawn's morning light
