Текст песни Lonesome for a Livin' (feat. Jamey Johnson) - Blackberry Smoke , Jamey Johnson

You might say the reason I was put on this earth
Was to pour out my heart every day
It′s just what comes natural like takin' a breath
I could sing what I never could say
I put quite a few tears into quite a few beers
Yes, I′ve worn my soul on my sleeve
Laid out there for the whole world to see
Yeah, the blues have been my old boss man
And lovesick, it knows me by name
You could say I was lonesome for a livin'
And heartache is my claim to fame
I lived all the lyrics for better or for worse
The drinkin', the cheatin′, and the lyin′
Well, I guess I walked it just how I talked it
Both eyes wide open but stone blind
I wonder how many angels
Are waitin' for me
To finally fall down on my knees
And then put me back up on my feet
Lord, the blues have been my old boss man
And lovesick, it knows me by name
You could say I was lonesome for a livin′
And heartache is my claim to fame
I miss them old friends of mine that left me behind
Seems like so many gone home
Yeah, but I still sing with 'em and I sure won′t forget 'em
I live the life of an old country song
Lord, the blues have been my old boss man
And lovesick, it knows me by name
You could say I was lonesome for a livin′
And heartache is my claim to fame
Oh, and heartache is my claim to fame
