[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Feel the pressure rise

Hear the whistle blow

Bought a ticket of her own accord

To, I don't know

Packed her heart in a travellin' bag

I never said "bye-bye"

Somethin' missin' in the neighbourhood

Of her cryin' eyes

[Pre-Chorus]

I stirred my coffee with the same spoon

Knew her favourite tune

[Chorus]

Gone shootin'

My baby's gone shootin'

[Verse 2]

Wrapped herself around

Like a second skin

Backed her favourite nag

But she could never win

I took an offer in another town

She took another pill

She was runnin' in an overdrive

A victim of overkill

[Pre-Chorus]

She never made it past the bedroom door

What was she aimin' for?

[Chorus]

Gone shootin'

She's gone

Gone, gone, gone

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Gone shootin'

My baby's gone shootin'

And look out, woo

Gone shootin'

Oh, my baby's got a gun

Gone shootin'

Ow, look out, look out, look out

Gone shootin'

I shouldn't get in her way

Gone shootin'

Ah, she sure is loaded

She's gone (Gone shootin')

Gone, gone, gone, she's gone

Gone shootin'

[Outro]

(Way)

I used to love her so
