If I had my way, I'd live in your town
I'd leave today, and soon I'd be touching down
Though as it is, I feel the lonesomes coming on
My younger self says, "They've got you bent double now"
My tired self says, "Shut up and stay out of trouble"
And walk backwards circles dragging these chains
It's called a job, and they're called the bank
And yes I believe I feel the lonesomes coming on
Just who do I thank, for what we've got going on
Who must I thank, for all that I have to show
If this isn't real, then I'll burn these bills
I'm not surprised you're thinking about staying away
Darlin' how long 'cause I'm not the strong one
And I feel the lonesomes coming on
Where is the spark, who took the wheel
Who dropped the engine, busted the seal
Yes I believe, I feel the lonesomes coming on
Yes I believe, I feel the lonesomes coming on
