Shannon Mcnally - Lonesome, Ornery and Mean Lyrics
On a greyhound bus,Lord I'm traveling this morningI'm going to Shreveport and on down to New OrleansBeen driving these highways,Been doing things my wayIt's been making me lonesome on'ry and meanNow her hair was jet black,And her name was CodeneThought she was the cream of the Basin Street queensShe got tired of that smokey whine dreamBegan to feel lonesome on'ry and meanWe got together, and we cashed in our sweeps.Gave 'em to a beggarWho was mumbling through the streetsThere's no escapingFrom his snowy white dreamsBorn lookin' lonesome on'ry and meanNow i'm down in this valley,Where the wheels turn so lowAt dawn i pray, to the Lord of my soulI say do Lord, do right by meYou know I'm tired of being lonesomeon'ry and meanYodelayeeee...
