[00:24.25] | Daddy sits on a' front porch swinging |
[00:26.76] | Looking out on a vacant field |
[00:29.60] | Used to be filled with burley tobacca |
[00:32.23] | Now he knows it never will |
[00:35.19] | My Brothers found work in Indiana |
[00:37.93] | My Sisters a nurse at the old folks home |
[00:40.88] | Mama still cooking too much for supper |
[00:43.46] | And me I've been a long time gone |
[00:46.19] | Been a long time gone |
[00:48.99] | No, I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when |
[00:52.21] | Long time gone |
[00:54.57] | And it ain't coming back again |
[00:58.06] | |
[01:08.03] | Deliah plays that old church piano |
[01:10.49] | Sitting out on her daddy's farm |
[01:13.36] | She always thought that we'd be together |
[01:15.97] | Lord I never meant to do her harm |
[01:19.03] | Said she could hear me singin' in the choir |
[01:21.87] | Me, I heard another song |
[01:24.67] | I caught wind and hit the road runnin' |
[01:27.56] | And Lord, I've been a long time gone |
[01:30.14] | Been a long time gone |
[01:32.87] | Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when |
[01:36.15] | Long time gone |
[01:38.41] | And it ain't comin' back again |
[01:44.54] | |
[02:03.74] | Now me, I went to Nashville, |
[02:05.76] | Tryin' to beat the big deal |
[02:07.14] | Playin' down on Broadway |
[02:08.51] | Gettin' there the hard way |
[02:09.92] | Living from a tip jar |
[02:11.19] | Sleeping in my car |
[02:12.73] | Hocking my guitar |
[02:13.76] | Yeah I'm gonna be a star |
[02:20.71] | Now, me and Deliah singing every Sunday |
[02:24.05] | Watching the children and the garden grow |
[02:26.68] | We listen to the radio to hear what's cookin’ |
[02:29.30] | But the music ain't got no soul |
[02:32.37] | Now they sound tired but they don't sound Haggard |
[02:35.11] | They've got money but they don't have Cash |
[02:38.00] | They got Junior but they don't have Hank |
[02:40.47] | I think, I think, I think |
[02:42.77] | The rest is a long time gone |
[02:46.01] | No, I ain't hit the roof since I don't know when |
[02:49.28] | Long time gone |
[02:51.58] | And it ain't coming back |
[02:52.95] | I said a long time gone |
[02:55.85] | No, I ain't honked the horn since I don't know when |
[02:59.08] | Long time gone |
[03:01.49] | And it ain't coming back again |
[03:05.54] | |
[03:14.40] | I said a long time, long time, long time gone |
[03:20.65] | Well it's been a long time |
[03:23.38] | |
[03:25.89] | Long time, long time, long time gone |
[03:31.75] | Oh, it's been a long time gone |
[03:36.90] | Long time, long time, long time gone |
[03:42.04] | Yeah yeah |
