Whenever my soul is lonely
Whenever I`m feeling blue
I start thinkin` `bout my blue eyed darlin`
And my heart starts pinin` for you
Chorus:
I wanna hear that high lonesome sound
Cause my sweet baby ain`t around
When my life`s got me down
I wanna hear that high lonesome sound
When I`m lost in this ocean of darkness
Not knowing which way I should turn
And my eyes are filled with sadness
Of knowing you`ll never return
