Have you ever been walking Walking down that old lonesome road? Have you ever been walking Walking down that old lonesome road? No place to go Whee well brown no place to room and board
Things look so lonesome, down that road ahead Things look so dark, down that road ahead Been thinkin' of the way you livin' Whee well boy and what your mother said
Things look so lonesome When you ain't got a shelter over your head Things look so lonesome When you ain't got a shelter over your head When you could have been at home Whee well boy sleepin' in a feather bed
So lonely lonesome When you gotta travel it all alone So lonely lonesome When you gotta travel it all alone When all you have here boy She's there alone.
