Lonely Bones Songtext
von Mark McKinney

Tryin' to put away this shadowed mind,
you know a bleedin' heart leaves a trail behind.
Sometimes you forget you can even hurt,
till the love you thought you had's straight into the dirt.
I went up to Ft. Worth to get away
from a small town girl with a pretty face
but you can't hide from the heartbreak hounds,
once they catch your scent they'll hunt you down.
I'm gonna sit right here and drink whiskey till I'm gone
and try to figure out what the hell went wrong.
I'm gonna sit right here and make the jukebox play sad songs
'cause I think I need one more night of being alone.
'Cause someone rattled these lonely bones.
Got pretty ripped down in San Antone,
with some Texas-Mexican shootin' patron.
Try to burn a hole straight through my mind
tryin' to put these feelings where the sun don't shine. Started to fade on 35,
so I stopped in south Austin just to stay alive.
Found my way over to the Broken Spoke,
said honey keep 'em comin' till I'm broke.
I'm gonna sit right here and drink whiskey till I'm gone
and try to figure out what the hell went wrong.
I'm gonna sit right here and make the jukebox play sad songs,
'cause I think I need one more night of being alone.
'Cause someone rattled these lonely bones - alright.
Tell me why, is it so hard, is it so hard, to let go.
Just tell me why, is it so hard, is it so hard, to let go.
I'm gonna sit right here and drink whiskey till I'm gone
and try to figure out what the hell went wrong.
I'm gonna sit right here and make the jukebox play sad songs,
'cause I think I need one more night of being alone.
'Cause someone rattled these lonely bones.
