Gone Girl is an album by American country singer Johnny Cash, released on Columbia Records in 1978 (see 1978 in music). It features The Rolling Stones' Beggars Banquet song "No Expectations," the original "It Comes and Goes" and Rodney Crowell's "A Song for the Life", as well as a version of Kenny Rogers' famous single "The Gambler", released just a month before Gone Girl. Three singles from the album – "Gone Girl", "I Will Rock and Roll with You" and "It'll Be Her" – were released, but did not reach the country charts' top twenty.
