Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
And they said you're gonna put me on a shelf
But let me tell ya got some news for you
And you'll soon find out it's true
And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself
Cause I'm already gone, and I'm feelin strong
I will sing this vict'ry song woo-oo-oo, my my, woo-oo-oo
The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like ya had to set things right
Just remember this my girl when you look up in the sky
You could see the stars and still not see the light that's right
Cause I'm already gone, and I'm feelin strong
I will sing this vict'ry song woo-oo-oo, my my, woo-oo-oo
SOLO
Well, I know it wasn't you who held me down
Heaven knows it wasn't you who set me free
So oftentimes it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key
But me I'm already gone and I'm feelin strong
I will sing this vict'ry song, Coz I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone, and I'm feelin strong
I will sing this vict'ry song
Coz I'm already gone
Yes, I'm already gone
Already gone (alright nighty night)
Already gone
What has to be remembered is that they parted under questionable circumstances. In fact, it is said that someone in the group had said that they would get back together when hell freezes over. That's why they actually had a tour titled, " Hell Froze Over ! " a few years back !
