Tuesday’s Gone Lyrics

[Intro]
Uh, you guys ready?
(Let’s do it)
One, two, three
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
Train roll on, on down the line
Won't you please take me far, far away?
Now, I feel the wind blow outside my door, Lord
I’m, I'm leaving my woman at home

[Chorus]
My baby's gone
Tuesday's gone with the wind, yeah
My baby's gone, gone with the wind
Gone, gone, Gary

[Guitar solo]

Yeah
Pepper

[Verse 2]
And I don't know where I’m going
I just want to be left alone
When this train ends, well, I'll try again
I'm leaving my woman at home
[Chorus]
My baby's gone
Tuesday's gone with the wind, oh yeah
Tuesday's gone with the wind, yeah
Tuesday's gone, gone with the wind, yeah
My baby's gone with the wind
Train roll on

John
[Harmonica solo]
Yeah
Ha ha

[Chorus]
Tuesday's gone with the wind, yeah
Tuesday's gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone, gone with the wind, yeah
My baby's gone with the wind
Train roll on

[Verse 3]
Train roll on, many miles from my home
See, I ‘m riding my blues, babe, my blues away, yeah, yeah
Well, Tuesday, you see, oh, she had to be free, yeah
But somehow I've got to, to carry on
[Chorus]
My baby's gone
Tuesday's gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone, gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone
Tuesday's gone with the wind
My baby's gone with the wind

[Closing]
Train roll on
Train roll on
Ride on, train
Ride on, train
Ride on, train
Train roll on, yeah
Train, it rolls on
Train roll on
Lord, I can't change
Lord, I can't change
Lord, I can't change
Lord, I can't change

Train roll on, yeah
Ride on, train, yeah, yeah, yeah
I can't change
Train roll on
Ride on, train
Lord, I can't change
Lord, I can't change
Ride on, train

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

On December 18, 1997, Metallica went to San Jose’s KSJO, hosting the “Don’t Call Us, We’ll Call You” radio show. They gave an unplugged concert, bootlegged as “Acoustic Metal”, that’s usually derided by fans, with uninspired performances, innapropriate bits of spoken word, and songs dragging on far too long (particularly for acoustic guitar solos). The only song that gets a pass is this cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd, originally released on the 1973 album “(Pronounced ‘lĕh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd)”. A plethora of guests are featured, from Lynyrd’s own Gary Rossington to Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney of Alice in Chains, along with Faith No More’s Jim Martin, PrimusLes Claypool, Corrosion Of Conformity’s Pepper Keenan, and John Popper of Blues Traveler.
