Well, I got drunk with buds in Dublin
I've been sober in October
I wandered through the darkness
Stuck around to greet the dawn
St. Cloudown and New Orleans
Chased them clouds in Colorado
Blowing like the wind
I've been gone
Like you ain't ever seen Far or wide and in between
Living out an outlaw cowboy song
It's a heavy price to pay
I'll make a lot of it someday With the tale to tell
For each one I've been gone In my mind I'm just a drifter
A traveler,
a visitor Turning over miles
Turning pages,
turning stones We're in a late night conversation
Otherworldly observations By the time I make some sense of it
I'll be moving on
Like you ain't ever seen Far or wide and in
between Chasing after dreams right or wrong
It's a heavy price to pay I'll make a lot of it someday
With the tale to tell For each one I've been gone
When they call my number
See the gathering of goners Where my ramblers smile with honor
And waltz into the great beyond Like you ain't ever seen Far or
wide and in between Living out an outlaw cowboy song It's a heavy
price to pay I'll make a lot of it someday With the tale to tell
For each one I've been gone
Got a tale to tell For each one I've been gone
