Lyrics
It’s A Great Place To Be (If You’re Lonesome) - Steve Spurgin
Sailin’ on Nevada 95
Listenin’ to those hot tires whine
Baby ran away with a dealer named Ray back in Vegas
Now I’m too blue to cry
Headed North under big desert skies
Chorus:
But it’s a great place to be if you’re lonesome
It’s a great place to be when your heart breaks into
It’s a great place to be if you’re lonely like me
And you need a new place to call home from
It’s a great place to be if you’re lonesome
Beatty is a far cry from Reno
But I gambled my money away
I sold my guitar, I got a job tendin’ bar
And it looks like I’m sure here to stay
And it don’t make a dang anyway
Cause it’s a great place to be if you’re lonesome
It’s a great place to be when your heart breaks into
It’s a great place to be if you’re lonely like me
And you need a new place to call home some
Well it’s a ...
It’s a ...
It’s a ..
And you need a new place to call home some
It’s a great place to be if you’re lonesome
