Always Be Me lyrics

If lonesome was money I'd be set for life I'd be swimmin in riches instead of tears I've cried The blues would be worth a whole lot of green You'd never hear one complaint from me If lonesome was money I'd be set for life If lonesome was a woman I'd never be alone I'd always have someone here to love me and to hold I'd leave misery's clutches and find love's embrace This frown you see a smile would replace If lonesome was a woman I'd never be alone How I'd like to change lonesome To mean something happy and free But I know that won't ever happen you see Lonesome will always be me Lonesome will always be me If lonesome was a liquor I could run a still Bottle up my tears and let the folks drink their fill It'd be happy hour all the time seven days a week And laughter's all you'd ever hear from me If lonesome was a liquor I could run a still How I'd like to change lonesome To mean something happy and free But I know that won't ever happen you see Lonesome will always be me Lonesome will always be me
