Lonelyville

(album: Highway Headin' South - 1974)

Well, I'm moving from the bright lights of the city
To a place where the sun don't shine and it never will
A town where no one knows the population
I'm moving to a place called Lonelyville

The street lights there are black as the bottom of a coalmine
And the faces you see there will make you chill
The dark and lonely sidewalks of that city
Are waiting now for me in Lonelyville

This town's changed a lot since my love left here
Her love left my world so cold and still
So I'm moving to a place where no one knows me
A dark and lonely place called Lonelyville

The street lights there are black as the bottom of a coalmine
And the faces you see there will make you chill
The dark and lonely sidewalks of that city
Are waiting now for me in Lonelyville
They're waiting now for me in Lonelyville
