I'm So Gone

Lyrics: Jackie Greene
Music: Jackie Greene

A Jackie Greene song played with Phil Lesh and Friends in 2007

I�m not gonna be civil
I�m not gonna watch my tongue nor what I say
I�m gonna dance with the devil
Gonna shovel out dirt for a stiff and shallow grave

'Cause I�m so gone
Such a long, long way from home
I�m holding out for something I can feel
And I�m so lost
Such a long, long way to cross
But I�m holding out for something I can feel

Hey, did you hear about Vegas?
She�s got mouths to feed and only one hole keeps them fed
Hey, it�s starting to plague us
And it won�t be long before one of us is dead

I�m so gone
Such a long, long way from home
I�m holding out for something I can feel
'Cause I�m so lost
Such a long, long way to cross
I�m holding out for something I can feel
I can feel

Oh, how nothing is sacred
Just do what you do just to survive
But show me something that�s naked
And I�ll show you something that�s alive

And I�m so gone
Such a long, long way from home
I�m holding out for something I can feel
And I�m so gone
But my feet just drag me on
And I�m holding out for something I can feel
And I can feel
