Lonely in Olney

I’m only lonely in Olney central Texas
I’m only lonely in Olney for Tennessee
Instead of trees there’s a big blue sky
Instead of Racheal it’s Lorelai
And I’m wondering to myself how could this be?

I’m only lonely in Olney central Texas
Searching for my soul under a lonely tree
Where the cattle sprawl and the windmills stall
And the hoodoo dust storms make a call
I’m thinking to myself of Tennessee

I’m a migrant through the day
A busker through each night
So glad you’ve come to hear me say
That everything’s alright

Ooo ooo

I’m only lonely in Olney central Texas
I’m only lonely in Olney for Tennessee
Instead of trees there’s a big blue sky
Instead of Racheal it’s Lorelai
And I’m wondering to myself how could this be?

Instrumental

I’m a migrant through the day
A busker through each night
So glad you’ve come to hear me say
That everything’s alright

I’m only lonely in Oloney central Texas
I’m only lonely in Oloney for Tennessee
