High Lonesome Blue

I'm coming home, needing attention Breaking down, I need some rest I'm like a man from the third dimension This way of life put me to the test I used to be a drummer man Kept it in the groove Then I had a change of heart Started singing the blues That's what I choose Leaving me high lonesome blue Time moves on I'm riding with it There's no choice, it's out of my hands This is my way and I won't quit it Fragile, like a rope of sand There's a place high on a mountain Where I go to find relief Get my feet back on the ground Set my spirit free Put on my walking shoes Got the high lonesome blue There's nothing left to prove High lonesome blue
