Too many bottles, Too many bags
Tonight is so dark, I am so sad
Got an empty heart lodged in my throat
Dreamin’ of hanging myself with a guitar string rope
I’m all alone and so depressed
On the road to my lonesome death
I’m all alone and all upset
On the road to my lonesome death
My horse is all mangled, He’s got some disease
His main is in patches, His scabs they bleed
They all tell me to put him out of his misery
But I love him more than life and that trigger I cannot squeeze
I’m all alone and so depressed
On the road to my lonesome death
I’m all alone and all upset
On the road to my lonesome death
The woman I’m a-lovin’, She loves another man
The pain of that feeling I cannot comprehend
And all I’m a-askin’ is for a little peace
I fear I will only get it in that eternal sleep
I’m all alone and so depressed
On the road to my lonesome death
I’m all alone and all upset
On the road to my lonesome death
It’s a hard, hard livin’, Ain’t no tongue can tell
I literally believe this world to be hell
So cry not for me my dear Mother
Where I be now certainly must be better
I’m all alone and so depressed
On the road to my lonesome death
I’m all alone and all upset
On the road to my lonesome death
