Well if I'm alone, will you take my hand

Would you stand by me in the pouring rain
With my seven sins and my contraband

In the vanity that still remains

I'm goin', gone
To Gonesville

Well here come the thunder, here come the rain

Hear that whistle moan, here come the misery train
For they say it might rain forever, but it sure can't rain on me

I'm a-bound to get gone, I'm a-bound to be free

Oh, say little bluebird, if I was like you
D# A#
I might fly from my cares, like the mockingbirds do
I might fly from my troubles, if I was a crow
D# A#
But well, I'm just a man but I'll still know where to go
[Chorus]

I'm goin', gone
To Gonesville
