Lonesome Night
Ricky Skaggs · Ancient Tones [Skaggs Family] [1999]
(Carter Stanley)
On a lonesome night so far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down.
In the pale moonlight we quarreled one night
Our heart's were young and free
I left her there and on that night
I though she was two-timing me.
On a lonesome night so far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down.
--- Instrumental ---
She begged me not to leave her there
She swore that she'd been true
But a jealous heart cannot believe
Oh, how I long for you.
On a lonesome night so far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down.
She thinks I turned her down...
On a lonesome night so far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down.
