[Verse 1:]
I got my ticket for the long way ‘round
Two bottle ‘a whiskey for the way
And I sure would like some sweet company
And I´m leaving tomorrow, wha-do-ya say?

[Chorus 1:]
When I´m gone
When I´m gone
You´re gonna miss me when I´m gone
You´re gonna miss me by my hair
You´re gonna miss me everywhere, oh
You´re gonna miss me when I´m gone

[Verse 2:]
I´ve got my ticket for the long way ‘round
The one with the prettiest of views
It´s got mountains, it´s got rivers, it´s got sights to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you

[Chorus 2:]
When I´m gone
When I´m gone
You´re gonna miss me when I´m gone
You´re gonna miss me by my walk
You´re gonna miss me by my talk, oh
You´re gonna miss me when I´m gone
