Lyrics:
Well bring your old guitar and sit here by me
Round the heavenly throne
Drag out your Oklahoma poetry, 'cause it looks like the war is on
And I
nobody but you
Sometime in the midnight hour
I get so lonesome
I need you, baby
I need you, baby
I need you, baby
To stay right here by my side
people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"
So if you're walking down the street sometime
And spot some hollow
people just grow lonesome
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"
So if you're walking down the street sometime
And spot some hollow
and by?
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I went back home, my home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All my
home, my home 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
lonesome wind moan
I'm gonna get back
From the places I've gone
Take me back to the country
It's time to go home
Not a night passes or a day goes by
That I
the great divide, and a white man stiff and still,
Lying there by his lonesome self, and I figured it must be Bill.
So I thought of the contract I'd made
From across that lonesome ocean
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
Maybe silver or of golden
Either from the mountains of Madrid
that I
That I create with my lonesome mind
And beg for your culture back
I hate it when I come by
When you need my
When you need my bed
You'd be lying
I went back home, my home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All of my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and lone
Will
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
clinging to the past
haunted by things left unspoken
There was only so much sand in the hourglass
Some things I'll never know
Are you happy did you
thought surrendered to cards held by fate
So don't weep for the winter wail
The loons lonesome song, sweet and proud
and strong
Forever echoing
Chicken feathers and all
To the bridge boys...
Gives you daytime, and the nighttime
Is for these...
Greasy chickens
Can you stand it by your lonesome baby?
whistling that old lonesome tune
People are laughing
The sun always shines
Tomorrow's a new day
And pleasures are wide
So, I can't explain it
Thought
and handsome and quite well known by all
She's the combination on the Wabash Cannonball
But now the Eastern States are dandy
So the people say
From New
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
and the stars above
You can measure your riches by the ones you love
When I say goodbye, you can bet I'm gone
When a lonesome freight train whistle blows its
lonesome
Missed my mother she was gone
All my brothers and sisters crying
In our home so sad and alone
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by Lord, by
There's a train goin' to Memphis
Please can I go
A train bound for Memphis
Please can I go
I get so lonesome
When I hear that whistle blow
It blows
before
So I don’t listen to the radio anymore
I’m picking up my phone and dialing up that request line
And I know they know my voice by heart, but
how sweet life is
I wanna hear about a heartbreak
So I can relate
Give me a song where the cowboy rides away
I need a shot of that lonesome steel guitar
home, my home 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
