Well I ain't never been to Folsom But I've damn sure done my Time Tryin' to please a Woman Tryin' to walk the Line When she washed her hands of our love I went right straight down the Drain Straight down the tubes with the booze and blues Where the boozin' losers hang Now I'm Lowdown and Lonesome, but I feel right at home Cuz I done grown accustomed, to sinkin' like a stone Since I hit rock bottom, I've been high as I can be Ever since that woman, put that Lowdown and Lonesome on me Here on this Whiskey river Ain't no paddle, ain't no boat And this Ninety-proof I'm clinging to Been keepin' me afloat Well they say I use to give a damn, But that was long ago
Back before she took our love And blew it full of holes Left me Lowdown and Lonesome, but I feel right at home Cuz I done grown accustomed, to sinkin' like a stone Since I hit rock bottom, I've been high as I can be Ever since that woman, put that Lowdown and Lonesome on me Bartender keeps her picture on the wall here just in case I ever can't remember how I wound up in this place I'm Lowdown and Lonesome, but I feel right at home Cuz I done grown accustomed, to sinkin' like a stone Since I hit rock bottom, I've been high as I can be Ever since that woman, put that Lowdown and Lonesome on me She put that Lowdown and Lonesome on me.
