Gone Lyrics

Well i'm the daughter of a truckie and since i was five years old

I've been riding with my old man, I was rasied out on the road

And I've seen every loney roadhouse for the Top End to the Bight

And I've been across the nullabor at least a dozen times

You think you really want me but there's some thing you should know

If you try to tie me down I'll just get up and go

And if you're lookin' for me tomorrow morning, I'll be gone

And if you think i wouldn't leave without a warning, you'd be wrong

I'm a girl on the run and I'm running for my life

Don't come looking here if your looking for a wife

Cos I'll be gone

You can pull me on the dance floor you can buy me a rum

But dont look at me that way 'cos I'm not looking for the one

I've met every witless w*nker from the Kimberley to Cairns

And I'd trade a hundred lovers for a dozen ice cold cans

You think you really want me but theres some thing you should know

If you try to tie me down I'll just get up and go

Gone like a beer in a friday night

Gone like a truckie in the morning light

Off like a rocket on outta sight, I'm gone

Gone like a beer in a friday night

Gone like a truckie in the morning light

Off like a rocket on outta sight, I'm gone

Gone like your pride at a B&S

Gone like a young bride's wedding dress

Gone like the Poms at an Ashes Test, I'm gone

Yeah I'll be gone
