Forever Gone - Rough Guess Music (original song)

This is the third and final instalment of my “Hog and Harp” series – a trio of old time cowboy songs I wrote and recorded with a vintage mahogany parlour guitar and an assortment of old harmonicas. “Forever Gone” is about an outlaw whose villainous past finally catches up to him in a spooky way. See my channel for the other two songs in the series: “Veil of Tears”, and “Raised by Wolves”. Forever Gone My life’s a tragic tale Of murder and betrayal And penance paid for living oh so wrong Now I ride the devil’s trail And hear the nightingale Calling out his mournful midnight song I’m forever gone Forever gone, forever gone My soul’s forever gone Forever forced to ride With demons at my side My soul’s forever gone I ride this evil steed As punishment for greed Forced along this trail that I abhor The devil signed my deed I’m never to be freed Hungry, bleary-eyed and saddle sore For evermore For evermore, for evermore I will ride for evermore Forever on this trail With Satan at my trail I will ride for ever more Images were created with Stable Diffusion.
