"Sweet Southern Sadness" lyrics
Where do you go when you're lonesome
Where do you go when you're blue
I find a stone in the shoals and I sit there thinking 'bout you
Do you drive away if only for the evening
Do you tear all the pictures off the wall
Do you find it hard to see what I'm seeing
Sometimes it feels like I can't see at all
Where do you go when you're leaving
Where do you go when you're through
I cast my line where that current is calm and let that river do what rivers do
Do you drive away if only for the evening
Do you tear all the pictures off the wall
Do you find it hard to see what I'm seeing
Sometimes it feels like I can't see at all
I cannot explain how this happens
So I just blame it on this sweet southern sadness
Where do you go when you're blue
I find a stone in the shoals and I sit there thinking 'bout you
Do you drive away if only for the evening
Do you tear all the pictures off the wall
Do you find it hard to see what I'm seeing
Sometimes it feels like I can't see at all
Where do you go when you're leaving
Where do you go when you're through
I cast my line where that current is calm and let that river do what rivers do
Do you drive away if only for the evening
Do you tear all the pictures off the wall
Do you find it hard to see what I'm seeing
Sometimes it feels like I can't see at all
I cannot explain how this happens
So I just blame it on this sweet southern sadness
