Glad I'm Gone
Glad I'm Gone: A Neon-Lit Tale of Liberation and Liquid Courage
Lyrics
Hey now, boys, have you heard the news?
Asking if others have heard recent news
That little gal of mine
Referring to his former girlfriend
She finally cut me loose
She ended their relationship
So I'm calling around and rounding
Seeking friends' support and advice
Up the troops
Gathering friends or allies
I guess this time I finally cooked my goose
Realizing he's finally made a major mistake
I got a hankering for a drink in my hand
Craving a drink
Jack Daniels and a Coca-Cola
Specifically desiring Jack Daniels mixed with Coke
Play me a shuffle or two
Asking for music to lighten the atmosphere
To lighten up the mood
Requesting upbeat music
Bob Willis on an old Rockola
Naming a musician and a music-playing device
I need the neon light to shed some neon light
Desiring the ambiance of neon lights
On why what we had went wrong
Wanting illumination on why the relationship failed
She ain't sad and that's two
His ex isn't upset, and neither is he
Of us glad I'm gone
Both are content with the breakup
I guess I wasn't the man that she deserved
Feeling inadequate for his ex-partner
But I wasn't the first to hear her last word
Knowing he's not the first to hear her final words
And as bad as it was I
Despite the difficulty, he wishes her well
Really wish her the best
Realizing she's already seeking a new relationship
Cause she's already looking for her next ex
Anticipating her future breakup
And I got a hankering for a drink in my hand
Reiterating the desire for a drink
Jack Daniels and a Coca-Cola
Specifically Jack Daniels and Coke again
Play me a shuffle or two
Requesting music again for a lighter mood
To lighten up the mood
Asking for uplifting music
Bob Willis on an old Rockola
Repeating the musician and music device
I need the neon light to shed some neon light
Yearning for the ambiance of neon lights once more
On why what we had went wrong
Desiring understanding of why things went wrong
She ain't sad and that's two
Neither he nor his ex is unhappy about the breakup
Of us glad I'm gone
Both are content with the end of the relationship
Well, I got a hankering for
Repeating the desire for a drink
A drink in my hand
Specifically craving Jack Daniels and Coke
Jack Daniels and a Coca-Cola
Asking for music to uplift the mood once more
Play me a shuffle or two
Requesting cheerful music
To lighten up the mood
Repeating the musician and music device
Bob Willis on an old Rockola
Yearning for the ambiance of neon lights
I need the neon light to shed some neon light
Seeking understanding of why the relationship failed
On why what we had went wrong
His ex is not upset about the breakup, and neither is he
She ain't sad and that's two
Both parties are content with the end of the relationship
Of us glad I'm gone
I need the neon light to shed some neon light
Desire to understand why the relationship failed
On why what we had went wrong
His ex is not upset about the breakup, and neither is he
She ain't sad and that's two
Both parties are content with the end of the relationship
Of us glad I'm gone
