2
On a greyhound bus, Lord I'm traveling this morning

Been driving these highways, been doing things my way

It's been making me lonesome, on'ry and mean
6
Verse 2:
7
Now her hair was jet black, and her name was Codiene
8
Thought she was the cream of the Basin Street queens
9
She got tired of that smokey whine dream
10
Began to feel lonesome, on'ry and mean

Verse 3:
12
We got together, and we cashed in our sweeps

Gave them to a beggar who was mumbling through the streets

There's no escaping from his snowy white dreams

Born lookin' lonesome, on'ry and mean

Verse 4:
17
Now I'm down in this valley, where the wheels turn so low
18
At dawn I pray, to the Lord of my soul

I say do Lord, do right by me

I'm tired of being lonesome, on'ry and mean
