Letra de Lonesome Song

Sun on the hillsides
The river tells the trains to ride on
Like they're racing that going sun
The main drag knocks along
Summer dames take their dresses for a walk
Down on the courthouse lawn;
And I walk the long mile of the exile
I guess I always will
Now the sun slides on the westside
Down behind the hills
It's been a lonesome song of a day
I'd just as soon dodge the moon
As I'd try and dodge the thought of you
Everyday's a song and you're the proof
It wasn't so long ago
When you put me out of doors
With nothing but a suitcase full of poems
You said I was sunlight at midnight...
A poet with the sea on my lips
You said my life rhymes with the lonesome lines
That drip from my fingertips
It's been a lonesome song of a day
There's a book I been meaning to write
About how my words are the proof that I'm alive
But it would take me ten lifetimes
So until I lay down for good
I'm gonna live each day the way I should
Like it's the best song I've ever heard
You said I was sunlight at midnight...
A poet with the sea on my lips
And now the sun slides on the westside
Down behind the hills
And it's a lonesome song of a day
