Lonesome Old Homesick Blues

1
I’ve got the lonesome ol’ homesick blues
4 1
I’ve got ’em bad babe down in my shoes
4 1
I left someone there that I might lose
5 1
That’s why I’ve got these old homesick blues

It makes me homesick to hear your name
To hold you near in my arms again
I’m gonna ride that old lonesome train
To the one I left back in Maces Spring

I’ve been away for a long, long time
Now I’m riding down this ol’ railroad line
To the one I left and I hope I’ll find
To ease this lonesome blue heart of mine

You told me once dear you loved me so
And it’s on my mind now every where I go
I’ll soon be knowing if this is so
Or has your love for me grown cold
