Lonesome On'ry and Mean |
| On a greyhound bus, Lord I’m traveling this morning |
| I’m going to Shreveport and down to New Orleans |
| Been driving these highways, been doing things my way |
| It’s been making me lonesome on’ry and mean |
| Now her hair was jet black, and her name was Codene |
| Thought she was the cream of the Basin Street queens |
| She got tired of that smokey whine dream |
| Began to feel lonesome on’ry and mean |
| And we got together, and we cashed in our sweeps |
| Gave them to a beggar who was mumbling through the streets |
| There’s no escaping from his snowy white dreams |
| Born lookin' lonesome on’ry and mean |
| Now I’m 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 |
| I’m tired of being lonesome on’ry and mean |
| 'Od da la de oooooo' |
