She's Gone
Bob Marley · Kaya
She had left me a note, hanging on my door
she say she couldn't take it she couldn't
take any more
the pressure around me, just couldn't see
she felt like a prisoner, who needs to be free
fools have tried, wisemen have failed
oh listen to me honey, life could never be
another jail
still we know now, we'll never see smoke without fire
and everyone you see, has a heart desire
She's gone, she's gone, she's gone, she's gone
oh mocking bird have you ever heard,
words that i never heard (repeat)
She made thru the exit, she just couldn't take it
she made thru the exit, she just couldn't make it
oh my children, if you see me crying
my woman is gone
if you see me, if you see me, if you see me, if you
see me crying (repeat)
She's gone, she's gone, she's gone yeah!
oh mocking bird have you ever heard
words that i never heard (repeat)
she's gone, she's gone, she's gone
