Just
as Lonesome as Can Be (Lonesome Blues)
Darkness hovers at the
edge of town
I'm so lonesome and
there's no one around
Just a shotgun shack
and an old dirt-floor
juke from the past
Shake Rag down in Tupelo,
yeah
on the railway by the
poor folks' shacks
There ain't no train on
them broken tracks
No one to save me, no one
to stand by me
I'm just as lonely - as
lonely as can be
[CHORUS:]
Gotta get gone, gone, gone,
gone
as far away as I can
see---
So I jumped that long,
black train
and rode off to my
destiny
I am forgotten, no one
knows I am alive
Nobody cares if I live or
die
I'm just as lonesome, as lonesome as can be---
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE:]
Heartbreak is no mystery
haunts like a dream just
out of reach
"No" has been a
gift; can't want for nothin' left to lose--- yeah--
I've been rejected since
I was born
I am invisible and lovelorn, (so I've...)
[CHORUS]
