Waylon Jennings - Lonesome, On´ry and Mean lyrics

Album: Lonesome, On´ry and Mean <RCA Victor> (1972)

(Steve Young)

On a Greyhound bus Lord I am travelin´ this morning
I am goin´ to Shreveport & down to New Orleans
Been travlin´ these highways & doin´ things my way
It has been making me lonesome on´ry & mean.

God her hair was jet black & her name was Bodine
Thought she was the queen of the Basin Street Queens
She got tired of that smoky-wine dream
She began to feel lonesome on´ry & mean.

--- Instrumental ---

We got together & we cashed in our sweeps
Gave onto beggar who was mumblin´ through the streets
Theres no escaping from his snowy white dream
On´ry & lonesome on´ry & mean.

I am down in this valley where the wheels turn so low
At dawn I pray to the Lord of my soul
I say do Lord do right by me you know
I am tired of being lonesome on´ry & mean...
