Well, my truck broke down this morning on the freeway
Somewhere between here and where I`d been
And I lost my favorite lady last night in a card game
She stacked the deck so I couldn`t win.
Chorus:
And now I`m lost and lonesome
Down so low I`ve got-ta reach up to tie my shoes
Now I`m lost and lonesome
Livin` with a classic case of the blues.
There`s an old piano playin` on the jukebox
And a steel guitar just beggin` me to cry
And those barroom ladies smilin` by the dozen
Just so they can tear my heart out one more time.
Chorus:
And now I`m lost and lonesome
Down so low I`ve got-ta reach up to tie my shoes
Now I`m lost and lonesome
Livin` with a classic case of the blues.
Well, there`s a brighter side to everything I`m saying
There`s a silver lining somewhere down the line
But I sure ain`t seen that brighter side lately
I`ll be damned if I`ll believe that lining shines.
Chorus:
And now I`m lost and lonesome
Down so low I`ve got-ta reach up to tie my shoes
Now I`m lost and lonesome
Livin` with a classic case of the blues.
Chorus:
And now I`m lost and lonesome
Down so low I`ve got-ta reach up to tie my shoes
Now I`m lost and lonesome
Livin` with a classic case of the blues.
You`ve got me livin` with a classic case of the blues...
