[00:20.25]written by Darrell Scott & Tim O’Brien
[00:22.25]
[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
[03:43.14]
