Lyrics:
Packin’ my bag
To move and find
A love like we had
When you were mine
It’s such a drag
It blows my mind
Hank’s word, you know the tag
I’m so lonesome, it just ain’t kind
Chorus
It’s the same old feeling
It comes to me at night
When I’d lie here beside you
Things used to feel so right
But since you're gone
And now it's just me only
I know what it's like to be lonely
--Instrument break---
With you, I would brag
I was so blind
And now I’m stuck in this old fleabag
The love we had just an old headline
Only the lonely, ain’t my bag
I was once your kind
I guess I’ll wave the white flag
A good womans’ hard to find
Chorus
It’s the same old feeling
It comes to me at night
When I’d lie here beside you
Things used to feel so right
But since you're gone
And now it's just me only
I know what it's like to be lonely
Fade
Only the lonely
I’m so lonesome I could cry
You know it don’t seem right
To be lonely
