Lyrics
You gotta weep, you gotta wail
You gotta drag yourself on hands and knees
Bleedin' another mile along the trail
You gotta laugh in the face of the devil, he's hanging on to your shirt tail
You gotta hold down the lid of the coffin, hammer in the last nail
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
You gotta live, you gotta learn
How to find your way to the end of the night
When there's nowhere left to turn
How to keep the last embers of the fire alight when there's nothin' left to burn
How to say goodbye to the ashes that fly from the cheap metal urn
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
She said, "Go to sleep, you gotta save
Your anger and rage for the livin' 'cause they're no damn good in the grave
Don't waste your time on forgivin' the ones who just don't know how to behave
There's Heaven and Hell in the world that you live in
But I'm in a different place
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
My baby's gone so far away
She's never comin' back to me
