Lowdown and lonesome in a laundromat
Lemoore, California
I went looking for my darlin'
I know I left her in there
Now I don't know where she run off to this time
Soon I'll be depraved and dejected and dyin'
Of thirst in some dive
Full of loose women and lifelong hard-luckers
Just waitin' to die
Now, when I came to this place I had two shirts
And when I go, I suspect, I won't have one
I'll pull up that familiar old bar stool
Where I spent so much time
Poppin' pills and blowin' my nose out
Among the dregs and the swine
I'm at home here I guess. I don't mind it
Still these days go by too slow for you I guess
Though I don't know when, I swear to god I will
Soon I'll go somewhere, but right now it's nowhere
I'm just here,
I'm just here
