Gone Too Long Lyrics


I been gone too long
Too long gone, too long
I been travelin' hard
I just can't get back home
Oh, it's hard to believe
I done all that much wrongI wanna find me a seven
Sevens ain't so bad
Seven's about the best friend
This poor boy ever had
Oh, you get you a seven
One and six don't seem so sadI ain't bein' alone
Bein' alone too long
I'm sick of singin' this same
Ol' lonesome song
I'm gonna find me a seven and darlin'
I'm comin' homeIt's lonesome down
Along this ol' highway
Darlin', I ain't stayin' here

I don't intend to stay
You may not want me
I'm comin' home anywayWhen the sun comes creepin'
Over the mountain side
I at least lay down
And tell myself I tried
I ain't like somebody gonna sit
In no ditch and cryI been gone too long
Too long gone, too long
Travelin' hard
I just can't get back home
It's hard to believe
I done all that much wrongToo long gone
Too long gone, too long
Travelin' hard
I just can't get back home
Yeah, it's hard to believe
I done all that much wrongOh, it's hard to believe
I done all that much wrong

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Townes Van Zandt (John Townes Van Zandt, born at Fort Worth, Texas, March 7, 1944 and died at Smyrna, Tennessee, January 1, 1997). He was a country and folk singer and poet. While alive, Van Zandt was labelled as a cult musician. Though he had a small and devoted fanbase, he never had a successful album or single, and even had difficulty keeping his recordings in print. Many of his songs, including "If I Needed You," "To Live Is To Fly," and "No Place to Fall" are considered standards of their genre. AllMusic has called him "one of the greatest country and folk artists of his generation."
