Well I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune 

Oh, Babe, I'm coming soon 

I cannot believe I stayed so long away. 

But a man must look around 

And you're the sweetest thing I've found 

Your lost high roller's rolling home today.



Well my daddy said to me 

Son, it's hard as you will see 

To find someone upon whom to rely. 

And in the kitchen Mama sneezed 

And he grinned big as you please 

Said "Bless you" and a tear come to his eye.



Well I did decide that very day 

That I would like to live that way 

And now I know I've just been wasting time. 

It's with you that I should be 

And if you feel the same about me 

Well I'm headed home along the straightest line.



I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune 

Oh, Baby, I'm coming soon 

I cannot believe I stayed so long away. 

But a man must look around 

And you're the sweetest thing I've found 

Your lost high roller's rolling home today.
