Lyrics
[intro] [harmonica] [verse 1] [male] Never knew you was gone until you left Now I know I done ya wrong Should a listened right here when I had you near Now I’m homeless in what once was a home [slow droning off tune bluesy harmonica] [verse 2] [female] I left for something better Cuz you kept turnin’ your shoulder When I told you what we had was runnin gone You treated me so bitter Our love got swept up by the river I was homeless in what once was a home [chorus] [together] So I’ll pack up my things and I’ll carry on My resentment for all got me singin’ this song Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home Lord lift me up when the cryin’s done I’ve begun the descent to my heart’s own tomb Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home [verse 3] [male and female trade lines] [male] There ain’t nothin left to do but find you [female] You best search for another I won’t be beside you [male] The wind gone carry me wherever you’re off to [female] You best search your heart for whatever you got to [together] I’ve found the truth since I’m now alone Living homeless in what once was a home Living homeless in what once was a home [chorus] [together] So I’ll pack up my things and I’ll carry on My resentment for all got me singin’ this song Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home Lord lift me up when the cryin’s done I’ve begun the descent to my heart’s own tomb Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home [harmonica solo] [chorus] [together] So I’ll pack up my things and I’ll carry on My resentment for all got me singin’ this song Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home Lord lift me up when the cryin’s done I’ve begun the descent to my heart’s own tomb Dwellin’ on dwellin’ on my lonesome blues for Livin’ homeless in what once was a home
