Lowdown Lonely

(album: Young Man - 1990)

I'm so lowdown lonely
For my hometown one and only
Been away from her too long
Gotta get off the road and back into her arms
She's where I want to be
And that's just making me
Lowdown lonely

A distant glow says a town is up ahead
And the call of easy comfort's in the wind
But I won't slow down. I ain't got no reason to
'Cause it's just another town that she's not in

I'm so lowdown lonely
Miss the love now she lays on me
When I'm feeling like I do
So doggone empty worn-out blue
She's where I want to be
And that's just making me
Lowdown lonely

I hear the rhythm of her heart next to mine
As the tires thump another mile away
A steel guitar is crying on the radio
And I know just how it feels to feel that way

I'm so lowdown lonely
For my hometown one and only
Been away from her too long
Gotta get off the road and back into her arms
She's where I want to be
And that's just making me
Lowdown lonely...
