Lonesome Standard Time

Lonesome Standard Time - Ameritz Tribute Standards

Do you feel a kindred spirit

To the sound of pouring rain

Does your heart start to yearning when you hear a distant train

If you'd like to take that train and ride

To someone left behind

You don't need the wind to tell you

You're on lonesome standard time

Do you sit alone and think about

An old love from the past

Do you feel a bit more empty every time you raise your glass

The memory of his kisses sends a shiver up your spine

You don't need a watch to tell you

You're on lonesome standard time

When you hear the little sad songs

Do you hang on every word

Do you swear a crying fiddle

Has the sweetest sound on earth

If you shudder at the music of a hoedown in the pines

You're on lonesome standard time

There's a bigger clock a-ticking

It crosses every zone

The first time your old heart broke

Was the time you turned it on

It don't never need a-winding 'cause if it works like mine

Well there ain't no doubt about it

You're on lonesome standard time

Oh when you hear the little sad songs

Do you hang on every word

Do you swear a crying fiddle

Has the sweetest sound on earth

If you shudder at the music of a hoedown in the pines

You're on lonesome standard time

Well if you shudder at the music of a hoedown in the pines

You're on lonesome standard time
