I got my ticket for the long way round
Two bottles of whiskey for the way
And I sure would like some sweet company
And I'm leaving tomorrow what do you say?
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
I got my ticket for the long way round
The one with the prettiest views
It's got mountains, it's got rivers
It's got woods to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
I've got my ticket for the long way round
These feet weren't built to stay to long
And I've got her on my arm
But you'll miss me when you're home
It's for you dear, that I sing this song
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
When I'm gone (when I'm gone)
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
(And I know) you're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
