Songs of the Lost and Lonesome

Most of the stories we weave
Are bound in misery
And the songs we write
Are songs of love and spite
And the stories we tell
"Oh Lord I'm gonna burn in Hell"
And the songs we sing
When no one's listening

Like, "It aint going right for me today
Nothing ever seems to happen my way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

"I ain't got no money for the bills to pay
No one seems to care about it any old way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

When you're walking down that road
Like there ain't no place to go
Some folks stay at home
And watch the big ol' sun go down
Then they talk about how time flies
And sit and wonder why
Don't think that maybe it's just a state of mind

Like, "It ain't going right for me today
Nothing ever seems to happen my way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

"I ain't got no money for the bills to pay
No one seems to care about it any old way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

When the morning rolls in
And you're sweating out your sins
Wondering, was it really worth the fun
All your money's been spent
Oh lord, you cant make the rent
If they take it all
Will this be your last lament?

Like, "It ain't going right for me today
Nothing ever seems to happen my way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

"I ain't got no money for the bills to pay
No one seems to care about it any old way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

Like, "It ain't going right for me today
Nothing ever seems to happen my way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls

"I ain't got no money for the bills to pay
No one seems to care about it any old way"
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls
These are the songs of the lost and lonesome souls
