High and lonesome, be on your merry way
High and lonesome, be on your merry way
Well now, you're back a-wanting me and I'm not gonna let you stay
Well now, ya went 'round the corner, now
Come back soon
Still gonna meet me you just, waitin' 'til noon
I'm high and lonesome
Be on your merry way
Well now, you packed up, want to leave me
And I'm not gonna let you stay
Well now, tell me, tell me baby, now now
What's wrong with you?
Don't treat me darlin', like you, like you used to do
I'm high and lonesome
Be on your merry way
Well now, you're packed up want to leave me
And I'm not gonna let you stay
