Waylon Sings Ol' Harlan

She said if I ever deceived her
 She'd be gone before I could count ten
 Well, I guess that I didn't believe her
 'Cause look at the trouble that I'm in.


 And now he's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
 Cryin' won't bring her back
 The more that I cry the faster the train
 Flies farther on down the track.


[Instrumental]


 If I only knew where to find her
 I'd crawl there on my hands and knees
 But each tick of the clock is a reminder
 She's one second farther from me.


 And now he's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
 Cryin' won't bring her back
 The more that I cry the faster the train
 Flies farther on down the track...
