I gotta do this on my own
Lonely Lonely road
Mama, it's just like you said
Oh It's imaginable
I'll Soon Be Dead
It's just like you said
Mama, mama, I ain't goin home
Mama, mama I am so alone
Mama, mama I ain't goin home
Cause it's a lonely lonely road
Mama, its been taking me
a while to understand
why this life treats a man
and while to understand
mama, I can't sleep that well at night
nobody is holding me tight
mama its just like you said
Mama, mama, I ain't goin home
Mama, mama, I am so alone
Mama, mama, It's a lonely lonely road
Oh I am so in love
So in love
so in love Yeh
It's a lonely road
