It’s a Lonesome Time Being Lonesome
Music and lyrics: Sophie de Rohan Birkeland
Verse:
Mama, I’ve been out riding since spring
Left without notice, left you on your own
But the sunset had started to sting
And the sunrise has followed me home
Mama, I met a boy by the canyon
I don’t think you’d like him, but I hoped you could
I’ve never once had a companion
You taught me that I never would
Chorus:
Oh, I ain’t easy to love, I said
And I ain’t easy to hold, he said
He said this life is above my bend
It’s a lonesome time being lonesome
Verse:
Mama, he had a heavy life to carry
And you gave me one of my own
He cried saying we’d never marry
Our curse is being alone
Chorus:
Oh, I can’t give you a home, he said
And I can’t give you a life, I said
Oh, the full blooded moon on the roof of the saloon
It’s a lonesome time being lonesome
Verse:
Mama, I’m not the girl you expected
But I’m growing into my own
Never wanted and never protected
But I pray you’ll let me come home
Chorus:
Oh, I’m sorry I left you alone so long
But Mama, you told me I don’t belong
Now my boots are soft and my hat is gone
And I’ve been riding dusk till dawn
It’s been a lonesome time being lonesome
