Blue Side of Lonesome

(Leon Payne)



(Lonesome, lonesome.)



I'm calling to tell you it's over

Yes darling, you're now free to go

You're saying you're sorry you hurt me

But you hurt me much more than you know.



You're asking me where this call comes from

Oh, I hope that you won't interfere

In your new romance turns out a failure

Here's where you'll find me my dear.



I'm just on the blue side of lonesome

Right next to the Heartbreak Hotel

In a tavern that's known as Three Teardrops

On a barstool not doing so well.



The hands of the clock never alter

For things never change in this place

There's no present no past and no future

For the ones who have lost in love's race.

The hands of the clock never alter

For things never change in this place

There's no present no past and no future

For the ones who have lost in love's race...
