Blackberry Smoke - Lonesome for a Livin' (ft. Jamey Johnson) [Official Music Video]
"Lonesome For A Livin'" Lyrics:
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 #Blackberry Smoke #"You Hear Georgia" #"Lonesome For A Livin'"
