Like a set of black marks tattooed on a highway
Like some cheap light beer or that Georgia clear that got us a little sideways
Like a first love´s tears and taillights, so long seventeen

Hand-me-down Ford for-sale sign along with her shotgun seat

Gone but not forgotten
All those memories, we got ´em
Small towns change and glory fades like all our yesterdays
Gone but not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten

There´s a little white cross on the side of the highway
In memories of the ones we love and lost that got to fly away
Reminders of the good-die-youngs all over this old town
Like all of the tears and beers we poured out on this hallowed ground

Gone but not forgotten
All those memories, we got ´em
Small towns change and glory fades like all our yesterdays
Gone but not forgotten

Here´s to all the some-gave-alls, the ones that done come home
The ones that do, those twenty-two that died fighting the same damn war

Gone but not forgotten
All those memories, we got ´em

Gone but not forgotten
All those memories, we got ´em
Small towns change and glory fades like all our yesterdays

Gone but not forgotten
Gone but not forgotten
