Lyrics
High Lonesome
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The fur trader's endless quest
Brought him to the peaks of the great Northwest
And he called the mountains High Lonesome
I hear the old High Lonesome callin' me callin' me
There on the old High Lonesome I'll be free I'll be free
To live my life the way I choose
The land they call High Lonesome mountains high as the sky
Sometimes it's oh so lonesome I could die I could die
But there alone my soul's my own
I hear you old high lonesome callin' me callin' me
Oh I hear you old high lonesome callin' me callin' me
