Lyrics for When I'm Gone (Sadie) as interpreted by teejies

When I'm Gone (Sadie) Lyrics
Let's hop a train
and stow away
down into Mexico

And on the way
as music plays
we'll let our beards grow tall

She don't like me singing songs
She don't want to sing along

It's still the same
She only likes me when I'm gone

I spilled my drink
across the bar
said, "Baby what's your name?"

Her boyfriend stood
and smashed a bottle
over my head.

She don't like me singing songs
She don't want to sing along

It's still the same
She only likes me when I'm gone

This song is very catchy and addicting with the whole laddadidadidadidadada part
lyrics...self explanatory.
basically just a fun song to sing along to.

This song was almost never recorded. I'm glad they changed their minds.

Okay, wow, I am like really surprised that only 3 people have commented on this song... this song rocks, it really does... I agree with lewaffle about the whole ladadidadidadidadidadidadada part... that is seriously one of the best parts of the song... haha...

I think the song itself is just a fun kind of song with not definite meaning... however, parts of it do have really clear meanings soo...

"It's still the same
She only likes me when I'm gone..."

I think those lines are really good... it seems like Ben is talking about how his friend/girlfriend (something like that) only really cares about him when he's gone, like on tour or something... it's like he is saying that the only time "She" only really cares about him is when he's not there... and it's kind of like "She" is bored with him... as if she is too good for him or something....

--noticeable in the lines.. "She don't like me singin songs
She don't wanna sing along..."

it could also be like the guy is trying to get with this girl... but she's not interested or something like that... and so one night he gets drunk because he wants to be with her and then ends up hitting on a girl who already had a boyfriend, and naturally he was pissed soo he smacked him around a "little"...

anyway, there are just a few views on the song... because nobody else has really said much...

no address rocks, point blank.

Ben is a very cool dude. The whole band actually stuck around after our concert and talked with us and signed stuff. they are a very down to earth yet fun band.
