Going, Going, Gone Songtext
von Bettye LaVette

I′ve just reached the place
Where the willow don't bend
Not much more to be said
It′s the top of the end

I'm going
I'm going
I′m gone

I′m closing the book
On the pages and the text
I don't really care
What happens next

I′m going
I'm going
I′m gone

I've been hanging on the threads
Playing it straight
I′ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets too late


I'm going
I'm going
I′m gone

Mama said, "Follow your heart
You′ll be fine at the end of the line
All that's gold don′t necessarily shine
Don't you and your one true love ever, ever part"

I′ve been walking the road
I've been living on the edge
Now, I′ve just got to go
Before I get to the ledge

I'm going
I'm going
I′m gone


I′m going
I'm going
I′m gone
I'm going
I′m going
I'm gone
I′m going
I'm going
I'm gone
