Lonely Room Lyrics

Lonely Room lyrics

The floor creaks, 

 The door squeaks, 

 There's a field mouse a-nibblin' on a broom, 

 And I set 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 'crost my bed, 

 Then the shadder of a tree starts a-dancin' on the wall 

 And a dream starts a-dancin' in my head. 

 And all the things that I wish fer 

 Turn out like I want them to be, 

 And I'm better'n that smart-aleck cowhand 

 Who thinks he is better'n me, 

 And the girl I want 

 Ain't afraid of my arms, 

 And her own soft arms keep me warm. 

 And her long, yeller hair 

 Falls across my face 

 Jist 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
