Ride Lonesome

Yesterday

Paper roses, they forgot to bloom

So walk away

Hang your head upon the hollow moon

You got to ride lonesome

You got to try to find the road

You got to cry a river

And follow it all the way home

Alone

She is gone

And you can't put your arms 'round a memory

You know it's wrong

Turn your heart into your worst enemy

You got to ride lonesome

You got to try to find the road

You got to cry a river

And follow it all the way home

Alone

What are you going to say to the mantle of moon

When it's shining down on you?

Where are you gonna ride tomorrow

When all your days are running wild?

Mm, oh-oh

Say, "So long"

To the one who's still a part of you

There's no song

That could tell your heart what it already knew

You got to ride lonesome

You got to try to find the road

You got to cry an ocean

And follow it all the way home

Alone
