Lonesome & Blue

This world’s too cruel for a poor boy to live in The one you love is with a different man We all rent another and drink our gin The one you love buys a different brand

She’s lone gone now I’m lonesome and blue

I met her at the pool hall played til 2 We twisted and shouted and she dug my blues We did the milkshake boogie all night long We rolled and tumbled to our favorite songs

She’s lone gone now I’m lonesome and blue

I met her mother’s mother on mother’s day She looked at me like she had something to say But my black cat mojo caught her tongue Spun her round and round til she slipped her tongue

She’s lone gone now I’m lonesome and blue

She’s lone gone now I’m lonesome and blue
