Lyrics Bill Monroe

Bill Monroe

Lonesome Road Blues

I'm going down this road feeling bad

I'm going down this road feeling bad

I'm going down this road feeling bad, lord, lord

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way

I'm down in the jailhouse on my knees

Down in the jailhouse on my knees

Down in the jailhouse on my knees, lord, lord

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way

They feed me on corn bread and beans

They feed me on corn bread and beans

They feed me on corn bread and beans, lord, lord

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way

Got two dollar shoes on my feet

Got two dollar shoes on my feet

Two dollar shoes they hurt my feet, lord, lord

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way

It takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot

It takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot

It takes a ten dollar shoe to fit my foot, Great God

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way

I'm going where the weather fits my clothes

I'm going where the weather fits my clothes

I'm going where the weather fits my clothes, lord lord

And I ain't a-gonna be treated this a-way
