[Verse 1]
You had your hands on the wheel
Stood on the street 'neath the telephone lines
Well you took everything you could steal
You came and you went like a thief in the night

[Chorus]
And I ran for the hills so you couldn't kill me
But damn you cut close to the bone
You can call me a fool you can call me alone
Call me gone, gone, gone
And this heavy old heart is as steady as stone
Call me gone, gone, gone

[Verse 2]
Well the sun's gonna rise in the east
And I'm bound to stumble on a Saturday night
Well passion is painful but it's free
Love is a mean hateful business sometimes

[Chorus]
And I ran for the hills so you couldn't kill me
But damn you cut close to the bone
You can call me a fool you can call me alone
Call me gone, gone, gone
And this heavy old heart is as steady as stone
Call me gone, gone, gone
[Verse 3]
I'd throw the horses some feed
Warm my hands up to a hickory fire
Well I'm hangin' on to the heat
Love is a cold institution sometimes
And I'm all full of guilt and I'm not full of pride
For sellin' my soul for a pat on the back

[Chorus]
You can call me a fool you can call me alone
Call me gone, gone, gone
And this heavy old heart is as steady as stone
Call me gone, gone, gone

[Outro]
Call me gone, gone, gone
Call me gone, gone, gone
