It’s Gone

Well, I loved Mary and she loved me back
She'd come pick me up in daddy's Cadillac
She kissed like fire, danced like rain
Then she packed up and moved to Corpus Christi Bay

Life's like a love, love's like a song
We're all looking for something, makes you sing along
When it's right, it's right and when it's wrong, it's wrong
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone

Well, time rolls on, so did I
I went chasing down a little bigger piece of the pie
Found some work in Shreveport making time and a half
But the job moved to Mexico and ain't coming back

Yeah, life's like a love, love's like the wind
Wherever it start's ain't where it's gonna end
When it's right, it's right and when it's wrong, it's wrong
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone

I'm just trying to make the most of what I have
It ain't that pretty but it ain't half bad

Life's like a love, love's like the sun
Shining down on every little thing you've done
When it's right, it's right and when it's wrong, it's wrong
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone
When it's good, it's good, when it's gone, it's gone
