[Intro]
[Verse]
I ve been sittin here alone in the darkness,
With the sound of goodbye ringin in my head.
I don t know how much longer I can, go on like this,
I m about as lonesome as it gets, just about as lonesome as it gets.
[Verse]
For a long time now we ve been, drifting apart,
I should have been glad to see you go.
But now that it s over and you re on a silver jet,
I m about as lonesome as it gets, just about as lonesome as it gets.
[Chorus]
If it rained straight whiskey, forty days and nights,
It wouldn t be enough to numb this hurt I feel.
Or keep this lump that s in my throat, from chokin me to death,
N.C.
I m about as lonesome as it gets, just about as lonesome as it gets.
[Interlude]
[Verse]
When they dig, a six foot hole in the ground,
And throw the dirt over me.
Just let these words mark, my final place of rest,
This is as lonesome as it gets, damn sure as lonesome as it gets.
[Chorus]
If it rained straight whiskey, forty days and nights,
It wouldn t be enough to numb this hurt I feel.
Or keep this lump that s in my throat, from chokin me to death,
N.C.
I m about as lonesome as it gets, just about as lonesome as it gets.
[End]
I m about as lonesome as it gets, just about as lonesome as it gets.
