Mama is standing at the ole screen door
With a dish rag in her hand
Crying like I ain't ever seen her cry before
Like she don't understand
Why I'm leavin' a lonely town
I'm leavin' a lonely town
My old man, he's working on his truck
Ain't never had much to say
Just shakes my hand and wishes me luck
And watches me walk away
Yeah, I'm leavin' a lonely town
I'm leavin' a lonely town
Driving one last time down Main Street
Past a cafe on the square
Go slow by the window because I know she's
Waitin' tables in there
But I'm leavin' a lonely town
She knows I'm leavin' a lonely town
I'm leavin' a lonely town
Lord, I'm leavin' a lonely town
Mama's standing at the ole screen door
Crying like I ain't ever seen her cry before
Lonely town
(Lonely town)
Lonely town
(Lonely town)
Lonely town
