That Lonesome Song

Jamey Johnson

This morning the sun made its way
Through the wind shield of my Chevrolet
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
On a chert rock gravel road

What the hell did I do last night
That's the story of my life
Like tryin' to remember words
To a song nobody wrote

And it's sad and its long
And can't nobody sing along
Its a southbound train
Its a whistle in the wind
Ain't nobody there to care where I been
I'm humming on that lonesome song again

I took a trip across the country, to Montgomery
Discovered I'd been wrong for so long
I thought it was a the fame and the glory and the money
But all I got to show is a damn song

And it's sad and its long
And can't nobody sing along
Its a southbound train
Its a whistle in the wind
Ain't nobody there to care where I been
I'm humming on that lonesome song again

And it's sad and its long
And can't nobody sing along
Its a southbound train
Its a whistle in the wind
Ain't nobody there to care where I been
I'm humming on that lonesome song again

That morning the sun made its way
Through the wind shield of my Chevrolet
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
On a chert rock gravel road
