lyrics

I’m Done, I’m Gone

I’m done, I’m gone
By dawn
I gotta go on.
I mean no harm
And you did me no wrong
It’s just that I’ve been here
For more than much too long.
See, my feet are rocked and my hands are nicked
So bad no damn dog would lick.
They curse me when they move their lips
So much I swear my name is Dick.
But damn how long can you keep a good dog down
They got me on a leash walkin’ ‘round this town.
So, it don’t gotta be far
But that’s far better than near,
It’s just that I gotta get
The heck up outta here.
But have no fear
And cry no tear
Remember me here
And I’ll make my home
Like a pair of headphones
Inside of your ear.
I stopped here to please
But please lemme leave.
See me in the sunrise
See me in your lover’s eyes
See every shape and size
And when I say good bye
With wishes well I say, “Farewell.
‘Til we meet again have a good one friend."
Matter of fact, I hope they’re all good ‘til the last
Or at least as many good as you’ve had bad in the past.
But that’s beside the point, lemme go,
Cuz once I’m from this joint
It’s down that long dark road.
But if you feel back
And wanna push me down the track
Lighten up my path
And lighten up my pack
Then when I turn my back
Give my back a slap
Even better yet maybe you could make your hands clap.
I’m done, I’m gone.
