steve young - lonesome, on'ry & mean (1976) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
on a greyhound bus i’m ridin’ this mornin’
i’m goin’ to shreveport and down to new orleans
i’ve been ramblin’ these highways, i’ve been travelin’ these byways
it’s been makin’ me lonesome, on’ry and mean

[verse 2]
well, her hair was jet+black and her name was beaudine
she thought she was the queen of the basin street cream
yeah, but everybody gets tired of a smoky+wine dream
she begin feelin’ lonesome, on’ry and mean

[verse 3]
yeah, so we got togеther and we cashed in our sweeps
wе give ’em to some beggar, he was mumblin’ through the streets
he stood there escapin’ from his snowy+white dream
he begin lookin’ lonesome, on’ry and mean

[verse 4]
so i’m down in this valley here where the wheels turn so low
at dawn i pray to the lord of my soul
i say, “hey, lord, won’t you help me jump clean?
you know i’m tired of bein’ lonesome, on’ry and mean” (woo)
