Lyrics To He’s Gone (Live At Baltimore Civic Center, September 17, 1972)

Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, you know better but I know him
Like I told you, what I said, Steal your face right off your head

Now he’s gone, now he’s gone, Lord he’s gone, he’s gone
Like a steam locomotive, rollin’ down the track
He’s gone, gone, nothin’s gonna bring him back… He’s gone

Nine mile skid on a ten mile ride, hot as a pistol but cool inside
Cat on a tin roof, dogs in a pile
Nothin’ left to do but smile, smile, smile

Now he’s gone, now he’s gone Lord he’s gone, he’s gone
Like a steam locomotive, rollin’ down the track
He’s gone, gone, nothin’s gonna bring him back… He’s gone

Goin’ where the wind don’t blow so strange
Maybe off on some high cold mountain chain
Lost one round but the price wasn’t anything
A knife in the back and more of the same

Same old, rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb
You know better but I know him
Like I told you, what I said
Steal your face right off your head

Now he’s gone, now he’s gone Lord he’s gone, he’s gone
Like a steam locomotive, rollin’ down the track
He’s gone, gone, nothin’s gonna bring him back… He’s gone

Ooh, nothin’s gonna bring him back
