| Mama’s standin' at the old screen door
|
| With a dish rag in her hand
|
| Cryin' like I never seen her cry before
|
| Like she don’t understand why
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| My old man he’s workin' on his truck
|
| Ain’t never had much to say
|
| Just shakes my hand and wishes me luck
|
| And watches me walk away, yeah
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| Drivin' one last time down Main Street
|
| Past the cafe on the square
|
| Go slow by the window 'cause I know she’s
|
| Waitin' tables in there, but
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| She knows, I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| Lord, I’m leavin' a lonely town
|
| Mama’s standin' at the old screen door
|
| Cryin' like I never seen her cry before
|
| Lonely town, lonely town
|
| Lonely town |
