Johnny Cash – So Doggone Lonesome: Lyrics and Music Video

So Doggone Lonesome Lyrics

I do my best to hide this lowdown feelin’
I try to make believe
There’s nothing wrong
But they’re always asking me about you darling
And it hurts me so to tell ’em that you’re gone
If they ask me i guess i’d be denyin’
That i’ve been unhappy all alone
But if they heard my heart they’d hear it cryin’
Where’s my darling, when’s she coming home

I ask myself a million times
What’s right for me to do
To try to lose my blues alone
Or hang around for you
But i make it pretty good
Until that moon comes shining through
And that i get so doggone lonesome

Time stands still when you’re a waitin’
Sometimes i think my heart is stoppin’ too
One lonely hour seems forever
Sixty minutes more to wait for you
But i guess i’ll keep waitin’ ‘
Till you’re with me
’cause i believe that loving you is right
But i don’t care if the sun don’t rise tomorrow
If i can’t have you with me tonight

Well i know i’ll keep on loving you
Cause true love can’t be killed
I ought to get you off of my mind
But i guess i never will
I could have a dozen others
But i know i’d love you still
Cause i get so doggone lonesome
