Lyrics:
and sometimes in the way
Because the last time I was home I heard my mama say
Well you kids have all got married off now and left us by ourselves
My we didn't
was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All of my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and lone
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by
dear, lonesome tonight
Now the years they've passed me by, and my hair has turned to gray
It's funny what a hand I've been dealt
If I should wander back
John Stewart
Chorus:
I hope you understand I've a long way to go. Hope you understand because I told you so.
Well, as the people say, I will be
lonesome
Since my mother, she was gone
All my brothers and sisters crying
What a home so sad and alone
an unloved child
The paint on the wall is peeling away
There's a photograph that fades on the shelf
The memory stays on of a love that's gone
I'm dancing by
road you're walking now
It doesn't have to be so dark and lonesome
It takes a while but we can figure this thing out
And turn it back around
You
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else
cs I watch the clouds roll by, I just hang my head and cry
God only knows I feel so lonesome
Well, I wonder every day, wonder why you stay away
God
I tried so hard, my dear, to show
that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
Is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome
Drove to the church
In my suit and tie
But I just couldn't bring myself
To go inside
So I sat alone
In my truck across the street
Watched
This Golden Rocket's gonna roll my blues away
Hear that lonesome whistle blow that's your cue and by now you know
That I got another true lover
Burl Ives - Froggie went A-courtin
Mister Frog went a-courtin, he did ride, uh-huh, uh-huh.
Mister Frog went a-courtin, he did ride, uh-huh, uh-huh.
Travelin' now
On the low highway
Three thousand miles
To the Frisco Bay
Cross the rivers wild
And the lonesome plains
Up the coast and down
I'm making by just hangin' around
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town
A lovesick fool whose blind and just can't see
Oh, lonesome me
I remember baby
I remember these long cold nights
I'm wide awake and dreaming
So tell me
Are you lonesome tonight
See the moonlight
And hear the lonesome whistle, see the smoke from the stack
To pal around with democratic fellow named Mac
So take me right back to the track, Jack
Choo
This Golden Rocket's gonna roll my blues away
Hear that lonesome whistle blow that's your cue and by now you know
That I got another true lover
all right
I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
But goodbye is too good a word gal
So I'll just say
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else
Let this be our last goodbye
No need to wonder why
Never had the time to try but don't blame me
Don't let me down so slow
Damage done now you can go
think twice, it's all right
I'm walking down that long, lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word, babe
So I'll
the timelessness
Of rider, please pass by
But who can dare to judge us
The women or the men?
If freedom's wings shall not be clipped
We all can love again
So
come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores
On Seventh Avenue
I do declare
There were times when I was so lonesome
I
