Just Call Me Lonesome

Billy Walker · Cross the Brazos at Waco [Bear Family (Germany)] [1993]

(Rex Griffin)



Why must I love a heartless one

Who'll never know the harm she's done

Though love is blind I should have known

Just call me lonesome from now on.



I climb the stairs up to my room

But no one meets me in my gloom

The silence tells me she is gone

Just call me lonesome from now on.



--- Instrumental ---



These walls will hide me when I cry

I pray to heaven I could die

What good is life when love is gone

Just call me lonesome from now on.



I pray my memories at last will fade

Into the distant past

If I must live and love alone

Just call me lonesome from now on...
