Lyrics

When I'm gone When I'm gone Roll my vertebrae out like dice Let my skull be a home for the mice Let me bleach like the bones on a beach I'll be hard like a pit from a peach Now the ground has a branch Now the hound has a ranch The old tressel's just junk The Edsel is on blocks The old said so... won't talk I'm a blimp that's straining, cut'er ties I'm a moth in training, flutter by Huh... When I'm gone When I'm gone I said I will have satisfaction I will be satisfied I said I will be satisfied When I'm believing: satisfaction When I'm grieving: satisfaction When I'm shaking: satisfaction When I'm praying: satisfaction When I'm staying: satisfaction When I'm carousing When I'm a thousand I said I will have satisfaction I will be satisfied Before I'm gone Before I'm gone I will have satisfaction I will be satisfied I will have satisfaction I will be satisfied Now Mr. Jagger and Mr. Richards I will scratch where I've been itching Now Mr. Jagger and Mr. Richards I will scratch where I've been itching Before I'm gone Before I'm gone Before I'm gone Before I'm gone Let me go back into the barrel Let the bullet go back into the barrel Let the bullet go back into the barrel Let the bullet go back into the barrel Before I'm gone Before I'm gone I said I will have satisfaction Let the bullet go back into the barrel Let the bullet go back into the barrel Take a left off the straight and the narrow Let the bullet go back into the barrel Before I'm gone Before I'm gone
