Lonely Room

Lyrics

The floor creaks
 The door squeaks
 There's a field mouse a-nibblin' on a broom
 And I sit by myself
 Like a cobweb on a shelf
 By myself in a lonely room
 ♪
 But when there's a moon in my winder,
 And it slants down a beam 'cross my bed,
 And the shader of a tree starts a-dancin' on the wall
 And a dream starts a-dancin' in my head
 And all of the things that I wish fer
 Turn out like I want them to be
 And I'm better than that smart-aleck cowhand
 Who thinks he is better than me
 And the girl that I want ain't afraid of my arms
 And her own soft arms keep me warm
 And her long tangled hair
 Falls across my face
 Just like the rain in a storm!
 ♪
 The floor creaks
 The door squeaks
 And the mouse starts a-nibblin' on the broom
 And the sun flicks my eyes
 It was all a pack o' lies!
 I'm awake in a lonely room
 ♪
 I ain't gonna dream 'bout her arms no more
 I ain't gonna leave her alone
 Goin' outside!
 Get myself a bride!
 Get me a woman to call my own!
