Last night a
coyote howled in
the meadow |
| |
And a train
whistle echoed
down the hill. |
| |
There was a
rustling in the
leaves that
stirred up my
memories |
| |
They played me
that old traveling
song. |
| |
And I wished
that I was Already
Gone. |

This morning
geese flew low
past my window |
| |
They were
winging their way
to the south. |
| |
They did not
have much to say
but they pointed
out the way. |
| |
They showed me
deep snow won't be
long |
| |
And I wished
that I was Already
Gone. |

I don't want to
spend another
winter-without-end |
| |
Here in this
northern prairie
town. |
| |
It's warm down
Tucson way. I
think I'll head on
out today. |
| |
Next year maybe,
I'll be back
around. |

There's a tear
in your eye as you
watch me |
| |
Stuff my clothes
in a dirty duffle
bag. |
| |
There is a fire
in your kiss that
I know I'm gonna
miss |
| |
But this
rambler's gotta
keep moving on |
| |
And I wish that
I was Already
Gone. |

Yeah, this
rambler's gotta
keep moving on |

And I wish that
I was Already
Gone. |

"I was
driving home
from the
Walnut Valley
Bluegrass
Festival in
late
September,
1996. My Acura
broke down
outside
Ellsworth, KS.
The car was
towed back to
Salina, and I
spent 4 days
in a Howard
Johnson Motel
while it was
being fixed. I
could see a
winter snow
storm building
up in the
West. I wanted
to get home
before I got
caught in a
blizzard:
wishing I was
Already
Gone."
