CHARLEY CROCKETT
"Lonesome Drifter"

Desdemona, where do I begin?
Who among us here is without sin?
I'm just a lonesome drifter on the only highway

Lean on me brother, 'cause I understand
You got that nine-pound hammer, swingin' in your hand
I'm just a lonesome drifter on the only highway
I'm just a lonesome drifter on the only highway

Everybody's workin' in them cotton fields
Just a little bit different than they used to feel
Yeah
Everybody's waitin' on that rising sun
To drop down, turn red, and be done

Baby, you're not the only one
Feelin' it risin'
Risin' on you
Baby, you're not the only one
Feelin' it risin'
Steady risin' up, risin' on you

[Interlude:]
Let me take this one right here

[Outro:]
Lonesome drifter on the only highway
I'm just a lonesome drifter on the only highway
Lonesome drifter on the only highway
I'm just a lonesome drifter
