Classic Country Lyrics: "Oh, Lonesome Me" von Don Gibson

Bildergebnis für don gibson
Don Gibson trat 1958 auf den Plan, da war er be-
reits 40 Jahre alt. Doch seine Songs wurden Rie-
senhits, egal ob durch ihn selbst oder in Cover-
versionen, und noch in den 1990ern hiess es:
"Willst du einen sicheren Hit, dann hör' dir mal
die alten Don Gibson- Platten an." "Oh, Lone-
some Me" war sein eigener grösster Hit.

Everybody's goin' out and havin' fun
I'm just a fool for staying home and havin' none
I can't get over how she set me free
Oh, lonesome me

A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging round
I know that I should have some fun and paint the 
town
A lovesick fool is blind and just can't see
Oh, lonesome me

I'll bet she's not like me, she's out and fancy free
Flirting with the boys with all her charms
But I still love her so and brother don't you know
I'd welcome her right back here in my arms

Well, there must be some way I can lose these lone-
some blues
Forget about the past and find somebody new
I've thought of everything from A to Z
Oh, lonesome me

Oh, lonesome me

Well I'll bet she's not like me, she's out and fancy 
free
Flirting with the boys with all her charms
But I still love her so and brother don't you know
I'd welcome her right back here in my arms

Well, there must be some way I can lose these lone-
some blues
Forget about the past and find somebody new
I've thought of everything from A to Z
Oh, lonesome me
Oh, lonesome me
Oh, lonesome me
