Well, please don't take all the land away 'cause I need that now, well, I need to go somewhere and lose my mind

And please stop telling me to turn it down 'cause it ain't that loud and I haven't felt like singing in a long, long time

Well, me all night alone, scream and cry over tremolo

I need to get out of the city, tell me, when can I go?

By the time I get back, will it be all gone? Well, has everything gone?

By the time I get back, will it be all gone? Everything's gone

Everything's gone

Well, I swore I'd never be this bitter again, but some years have passed, guess I lost religion and my piece of mind

I thought I'd be okay without a home if I just had grace, these years I've been away haven't been too kind

And I'm sick of seeing the fear in my family's eyes

I need to find the man who put it there and set his life on fire

By the time I get back, will it be all gone? Well, has everything gone?

By the time I get back, will it be all gone? Everything's gone

Everything's gone

Everything's gone

Well, if I ever get to go back home, I'm gonna go there all alone and take a walk around that dead-ass town

If I ever get back to where I live, you can bet I won't have to sleep on anything, I'll find a rich man's house and I'll burn it down

Well, I'll burn it down, burn it down

‘Cause my daddy built the deck with his own two hands, I guess you didn't really know

There wasn't anywhere else for us to go

Now where the horses used to run there ain't nothing left but Amish corn

Oh, the place where I grew up and my little brother was born

And if I strike it rich again, I'll go and buy it all back

I'll drop a bomb on that bitch and watch it turn to ash

By the time I get the money, it'll be all gone, well, it's already gone

By the time I get the money, it'll be all gone, everything's gone

Everything's gone

Everything's gone

Everything's gone

Lord, everything's gone
