That Lonesome Song by Jamey Johnson Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2008

[Intro]
That mornin' sun made it's way
Through the windshield of my Chevrolet
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
On a chert rock gravel road

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
And it's sad and it's long and can't nobody sing along
It's a southbound train, it's a whistle in the wind
Ain't no one there to care where I've been
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again

[Verse 2]
I took a trip across the country from Montgomery
Discovered I'd been wrong for so long
I thought it was the fame and the glory and the money
But all I've got to show is a damn song
[Chorus]
And it's sad and it's long, can't nobody sing along
It's a southbound train, it's a whistle in the wind
There's no one there to sing to in the end
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again

[Chorus]
And it's sad and it's long, can't nobody sing along
It's a southbound train, it's a whistle in the wind
There's no one there to care where I've been
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again

[Outro]
The mornin' sun made it's way
Through the windshield of my Chevrolet
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
On a chert rock gravel road
