Well I've been down to Dallas Texas, even went to San Antone

But I when I got to Mississippi, my best friend was dead and gone

Yes Bilbo is gone, whoa he had to put it down

Well I feel like a lonesome stranger, yes a stranger in my own home town



I was a playboy and a devil, I had time that was really wild

Since mister Bilbo is dead, it makes me feel like a fatherless child

yes Bilbo is gone, yes he had to put it down

I feel like a lonesome stranger in my own home town



Well you've been livin' in the big city, broke and had to get along

But you can hurry back to Mississippi, cause Bilbo is dead and gone

Yes he's gone, whoa he had put it down

I feel like a lonesome stranger in my own home town
