Song : Long Time Gone
 
Well I been gone a long time

The time has passed us by

And I know it won't be long 'till I get home

I see your smilin' face, well I just can't
erase

All those good ol' happy days when we were 'lone.




Well I'm comin' through the mountains

On my way back home

I see that snow fallin' on that good old mountain
ground

And I know it won't be long, I'm in your lovin'
arms

We'll live together and things 'll be better for
you

a' you and me, a' can't cha see? 



Woman, I been a long time gone

To be a thousand miles from home

I know I've done you wrong

And I know it won't be long,

I'm in your lovin' arms

Woman, been a long, I been a long time gone. 



When I hit that mountain road

I got five miles left to go.

I smell that good old mountain air and old and
pine trees

And as she stood alone with a pretty white dress
on,

I felt that good old mountain air blowin' up a
breeze. 



Woman, I been a long time gone

To be a thousand miles from home

I know I've done you wrong

And I know it won't be long,

I'm in your lovin' arms

Woman, been a long, I been a long time gone.
