I was drivin’ on 10 to San Antone
A scared little kid from a broken home
16 years old, tryna make it on my own

A dirty white suitcase in the back seat
Scuffed up cowboy boots on my feet
And a Gibson J45 my dead daddy gave me

Lonesome Rider
Lonesome Rider
Lonesome Rider

I played some Johnny Cash and Ernest Tubb
In biker bars and smoky nightclubs
Slept in my car when they didn’t pay up

In Austin I played and sang in the street
People were friendly but I couldn’t take the heat
So I drove to Nashville, Tennessee

Lonesome Rider
Lonesome Rider

Lonesome Rider
Lonesome Rider
Lonesome Rider

I stayed away from whiskey and cocaine
That stuff killed my daddy and drove my mama insane
Caused me so much pain

I paid my dues playin’ rhythm guitar
Backin’ up a couple of country music stars
And I kept workin’ hard on my repertoire

I wrote a little song for a girl who was hot
They put it on an album that nobody bought
But I was really happy with the little I got

It’s been ten long years of playin’ the game
But I still ain’t got my star on the Walk of Fame
Nobody knows my name
