four walls

Bill Monroe

Oh why did you leave me in this lonesome place
With four walls around me and a memory of your face
Why can't I be happy why can't I forget
With four walls around me I wish we'd never met

With four walls around me it gets so lonesome dear
Dreaming of you darling and wishing you were here
Four walls around me my heart is full of pain
Trying to forget you but it's all in vain.

Oh someday you'll be sorry you left me al1 alone
With four walls around you you'll remember how you done me wrong
Your time is coming and I know it won't be long
You'll have nothing there but four walls and a memory of this song
