Lyrics

Feel the pressure riseHear the whistle blowBought a ticket of her own accordTo, I don't know

Packed your heart in a travellin' bagAnd never said bye byeSomething missing in the neighborhoodOf her cryin' eyes

I stirred my coffee with the same spoonKnew her favorite tuneGone shootin'My baby's gone shootin'

Wrapped herself aroundLike a second skinBacked her favorite nagBut she could never winI took an offer in another townShe took another pillShe was runnin' in an overdriveA victim of overkill

She never made it past the bedroom doorWhat was she aiming for?

Gone shootin'She's goneGone, gone, gone

Gone shootin'My baby's gone shootin'Look out, woo(Gone shootin') How am I gonna get her down?(Gone shootin') Ow, look out, look out, look out(Gone shootin') I shouldn't get in her way(Gone shootin') Ah, she sure is loaded(Gone shootin') She's gone, gone, gone, gone, she's gone(Gone shootin')

I used to love her so
