Lonesome To The Bone Lyrics - Johnny Cash

On the park bench I slept on raindrops are fallin' on the newspapers coverin' me 

I hear early morning motors and I know the world is waking for the dawn 

But my mind's down in dark alley somewhere where last night you loved me 

And in the early morning chill my arms remember still 

But I'm droppin' like a stone lonesome to the bone 

The sun is roughly rising on the roofs of stagger town 

The time for sweatin' poison out is just now comin' round 

The high time of last midnight is over with and gone 

Leaving me lonesome to the bone 

[ guitar ] 

I walked away the wind blows and any way the wind goes will be good enough for me 

The streets are loud and crowded but I walk my weary way lost and alone 

Your hot breath and your laughter keep flashing through my mind to warm me 

But the naked light of day soon makes it fade away 

And I'm droppin' like a stone lonesome to the bone
