No Lonesome Tune — текст песни (Townes Van Zandt)

By townes van zandt



I aint gonna sing no lonesome tune

Ah, babe, Im a-commin soon

I cannot believe I stayed so long away

But a man must look around

And youre the sweetest thing Ive found

Your lost high rollers rollin home today





My daddy said to me

"son, its hard as you will see

To find someone upon whom to rely"

In the kitchen mama sneezed

And he grinned big as you please

Said "bless you" and a tear come to his eye





I did decide that very day

That I would like to live that way

And now I know I just been wastin time

Its eith you that I should be

If you feel the same bout me

Im headed home along the straightest line
