As I pulled in the drive late last evening

All my things were scattered on the ground

It was clearer than the air right off the ocean

I was headed for the ?lonesome side of town'



All my neighbours know the feeling

We all share a little common ground

There's a women's wrath to blame,

Our stories all the same

Here living on the

Lonesome side of town



By the time I got to work on Monday

Word from the top had just come down

We're locking all the doors tomorrow morning

We'll see you on the ?lonesome side of town'



Tonight we're having a block party

Where all the broken hearted gather round

We'll talk about how soon we'll all be movin'

Away from the ?lonesome side of town'
