Don't Call Me Gone
I was standing in my hotel room, wearing mama's dresses Thinkin' about the time I used to be a country gun And all the time I heard my daddy say to me "Get down off that horse and come inside" /Chorus/ The next time that you see me you won't know what to call me The next time that you look around I'll be gone Call me love, call me baby Call me anything but don't call me gone It was raining when I left her It was raining when I got her The light so bright I couldn't hide my tired and lonely eyes The money goes and when your next meal is a stranger's The red light that you see says come inside /Chorus/ Don't call me gone, 'cause I'm not /x2/ Don't call us gone, 'cause we're not We're coming home We read our mama's letters So we packed and took the bus home Found her crying softly by the headstone of his grave Took her hand and then we lead her like a little girl To the door then followed her inside /Chorus/
