Lonesome Road Blues Lyrics - Adrienne Young

Lonesome Road Blues 

I walked on down that lonesome line 

Hung my head and I cried 

I wept and I cried under a willow tree 

Out by the deep blue sea 

My mama, my dear papa can be found, 

And my brother on a county road 

Now I been down that long plank walk, 

Im on my way back home 

You cause me to weep, you do cause me to moan 

You cause me to leave my home 

I cried last night and the night before 

I swear I wont cry anymore 

Your fast mail train comin round that track 

Killed my brown eyed boy 

They took him down that smokey track 

Brought him back on a cooling board 

Now Im lookin down that lonesome line 

Just as far as I care to see 

I have no money lost my brown eyed boy 

These blues wont set me free
