Lonesome, On'ry And Mean
On a greyhound bus
Lord, I'm travelin' this morning
I'm goin' to Shreveport
And down to New Orleans
Been travelin' these highways
Been doin' things my way
It's been making me lonesome, on'ry and mean
Well, her hair was jet black
And her name was Bodine
I thought she was the cream
Of the basin street queens
Well, she got tired
Of the snowy-white dream
She got tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
Hey
Well, I'm down in this valley
Where the wheels turn low
And got to pray to the Lord
To the Lord of my soul
I pray, dear Lord
Won't you do right by me
I'm tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
I'm tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
Hey
Lord, I'm travelin' this morning
I'm goin' to Shreveport
And down to New Orleans
Been travelin' these highways
Been doin' things my way
It's been making me lonesome, on'ry and mean
Well, her hair was jet black
And her name was Bodine
I thought she was the cream
Of the basin street queens
Well, she got tired
Of the snowy-white dream
She got tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
Hey
Well, I'm down in this valley
Where the wheels turn low
And got to pray to the Lord
To the Lord of my soul
I pray, dear Lord
Won't you do right by me
I'm tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
I'm tired of looking lonesome, on'ry and mean
Hey
