well. it's lonesome in this ol' town
i'm a face without a name just a walking in the rain
houston. i got holes in both of my shoes
i'm a walking case of the blues
saw a dollar yesterday but the wind blew it away
houston. i haven't eaten in about a week
i'm so hugry when i walk i squeak
nobody calls me friend it's sad the shape i'm in
houston. a going back to houston
i got a girl waitin' there for me
where at least she said she'd be
i got a home and big warm bed
and the feather pillow for my head. a going back to houston
it's lonesome in this ol' town
i'm a face without a name just a walking in the rain
houston. a going back to houston
