Marty Robbins - Long Gone Lonesome Blues lyrics

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

Well I had me a woman who couldn't be true
She made me for my money and she made me blue
A man needs a woman that he can lean on
But my leanin' post is done left me and gone

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

Since my baby done left me
Nothing turns out right
I can stand the days but
Oh the lonesome nights
She left me last Sunday about
A quarter 'til nine
She's a long gone baby of mine

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

I'm gonna find me a river
That's as cold as ice
When I find me the river
Lord I'll pay the price
I'm goin' leave this world of woe behind
I'll be long gone like that baby of mine

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue

Well she told me on Sunday
She was checkin' me out
Long about Monday she was nowhere about
Nowhere it is Tuesday, ain't had no news
I got them gone but not forgotten blues

She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue
