Well, I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune
Oh, babe, I'm comin' soon
I cannot believe I stayed so long away
But a man must look around
An' you're the sweetest thing I've found
Oh, your lost high roller's rollin' home today
Well, my daddy said to me
? Son, it's hard as you will see
To find someone upon whom to rely?
An' in the kitchen Mama sneezed
An' he grinned big as you please
Said,? Bless you" and a tear come to his eye
Well, I did decide that very day
That I would like to live that way
An' now I know I've just been wastin' time
It's with you that I should be
An' if you feel the same about me
Well, I'm headed home along the straightest line
Well, I ain't gonna sing no lonesome tune
Oh, baby, I'm comin' soon
I cannot believe I stayed so long away
But a man must look around
An' you're the sweetest thing I've found
Oh, your lost high roller's rollin' home today
Yeah, your lost high roller's rollin' home to stay
