lyrics

lonesome

driving out of your town when i
didn't wanna go
last night with the lights turned down
and supper cookin' slow
sitting around your table
drinkin' whisky and wine
singing songs for an old friend
who needs a lullaby

it's alright, i got you here in my head
it's alright, i hold you here in my heart
i't a good thing i got out when i did
'cause you make me lonesome for home

we're rollin' through nebraska
crows are in the corn
farmers at the harvest
taming one more dusty morning
me, i blame tomorrow
and that late bright sun
got me thinkin bout it all again
and missing everyone

it's alright, i got you here in my head
it's alright, i hold you here in my heart
i't a good thing i got out when i did
'cause you make me lonesome for home

i said i'd call on sunday
guess i say that a lot
and i don't know just what happened
but i'm sorry i forgot
i wake before i want to
and curse the dawning sky
you said 'these days are gonna haunt you'
and now i know why

it's alright, i got you here in my head
it's alright, i hold you here in my heart
it's a good thing i got out when i did

'cause you make me lonesome for home

i won't be so lonsome now
not so lonesome
you're with me
everywhere i go...

Karen’s baby diary reads, "20 months, knows 6 songs." Her mother, a big band singer, was not surprised to find her constantly dancing and singing.

"A voice with this much strength and easy confidence is a rare find. Her songs are filled with good humor, sensuality and nature's simple pleasures. She can work a sly smile into a lyric that makes you smile in spite of yourself." All Music Guide ... more
