Your eyes are blue as a chinaberry sky
Your smile's a mystery that makes me cry
Your hair's the thread the fabric of my dreams
But a man is hardly ever the man that he seems
Your mama's diamond rings my daddy's silver studs
We're trying to make something that stirs the blood
We're parked out at the edge of town where the wildcat screams
But a man is hardly ever the man that he seems
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
I'm on edge like a rock up on a hill
I got my checkbook out but I can't pay my bills
A blonde in a brand new Thunderbird is cruising down the street
But a man is hardly ever the man that he seems
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
I've got your number baby you've got mine
Gotta hope someone answers when it comes the time
I've tried to tell you 'bout the things that I've seen
But a man is hardly ever the man that he seems
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
Gone from the get go I'm leaning in the wind
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
I'm gonna get gone get gone get gone again
I'm gonna get gone get gone I'm leaning in the wind
