Lyrics
It's a lonesome feeling when you're traveling
Down a lonesome road, down a lonesome road
Nobody cares a thing about you
It's a heavy road, it's heavy road
I wish that I was in Kentucky
With papa and mama dear
But mama's gone now and is poppa
And Kentucky that's a long way from here
I found the love since I've married
Her love was true as she told me so
I gave a ring with all my money
But she run off to where I never knowDemo Videos
