Back on my own again, I just can't win I'm all alone again, without a friend I've tried everything, except to lose my way But all this wandering, leaves me lonesome still I've traveled every way, far as you can go But all I've got are memories, in my lonesome soul I loved more than once, and broke the hearts of a few I'm on my own again, Lord what can I do Back on my own again, I just can't win I'm all alone again, without a friend I've tried everything, except to lose my way But all this wandering, leaves me lonesome still Instrumental Once I tried to stay, in a woman's arms But I had to run away, in case I don't know how Cause I know what I am, and I've had my fill I never could give a damn, now I'm lonesome still Back on my own again, I just can't win I'm all alone again, without a friend I've tried everything, except to lose my way But all this wandering, leaves me lonesome still
