I get stir crazy
When my rock won't roll
When I can't catch no sleep
When I can't find no smoke
I hear sirens singin
Calling from Black Bay
Find a two lane road
Take it either way
Hey baby are you headed for NOLA
Suckin down a blue cold bottle of cola
Gettin gone gone gone in the offing
Long Gone
Long Gone
Long Gone
I took two by land, one by
See that scale sway
Do re mi fa sober
One and one half days
Mind your own damn money
Spending mine in spades
To keep that golden shovel
Out of my pocket change
Hey baby I don't need much
If you got a little room in your pickup truck
Gettin gone gone gone in the offing
Long Gone
Long Gone
Long Gone
I left my only darlin, down in the Natchitoches
Been walkin in boots so long
I done wore through my soul
But I'll die out on that highway
Underneath that rim
With a bottle in my pocket
And a dollar in my brim
Tell the law when they bury me
To point my boots back at New Orleans
Gettin gone gone gone in the offing
Long Gone
Long Gone
Long Gone
