"Already Gone" reminds me of "Know Ye the Land?", which I won't repost in its entirety here, but it's very much a song about gladly leaving a place behind. The last verse:
Quote:Know ye the land where the bare rocks and old pinesThe four preceding verses detail precisely how dystopian the Cariboo gold rush was (very).
Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime?
Where the last hopes of thousands, dissolved by the gold mines,
To many bring suffering, drive others to crime?
How happy I'll be when on board of the steamer!
How joyful, I cannot find language to tell!
When wishing each miner, each loafer, each schemer,
Cariboo and its horrors a final farewell!
