GRATEFUL DEAD - He's Gone lyrics

rate me

Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, you know better but I know him.<br>Like I told you, what I said, steal your face right off your head.<br><br>Now he's gone, now he's gone, lord he's gone, he's gone.<br>Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track<br>He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back...he's gone.<br><br>Nine mile skid on a ten mile ride, hot as a pistol but cool inside.<br>Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a pile,<br>Nothin' left to do but smile, smile, smile!!!!<br><br>Now he's gone, now he's gone lord he's gone, he's gone.<br>Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track<br>He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back...he's gone.<br><br>Goin' where the wind don't blow so strange,<br>Maybe off on some high cold mountain chain.<br>Lost one round but the price wasn't anything,<br>A knife in the back and more of the same.<br><br>Same old, rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb,<br>You know better but I know him.<br>Like I told you, what I said,<br>Steal your face right off your head.<br><br>Now he's gone, now he's gone lord he's gone, he's gone.<br>Like a steam locomotive, rollin' down the track<br>He's gone, gone, nothin's gonna bring him back...he's gone.<br><br>Ooh, nothin's gonna bring him back.
