"I'm Gone" lyrics

Well, one fine day
I was out on a drive
I smelled this very awful scent
And who was by my side?

My bestest friend in the whole wide world
My favorite huntin' dog, his name is Earl
My girlfriend says that Earl's got to go
I've got some news for her
Somethin' she needs to know

Well, I love my girl
And I like her friends
But she hates my dog
So I know that it's gonna end
I just can't stand when she calls him names
And I know if I don't leave
Nothing's gonna change
So I'm gone

Well, weeks went down his lonesome road
And I'm missin' her
And I know he's gotta go
So I pawn Earl off onto my friends
And I head back home

And this is what she said

"Well, I love my life
And I like our friends
And your dog didn't bother me
It was you and him
But I just can't stand
When you call me your girl
So go on back to your huntin' spot
And have some fun with Earl."

I was gone
Oh yeah, I'm gone
Yeah, I'm gone

Get in the truck, Earl
We're outta here

Come on. Come on, boy
Load up now. We're outta here

Ah, he got chew on my boot, boy

Mm

Good dog
