They say that lonesome town
Was where I'd spend my days
Cause I just couldn't settle down
My life was such a craze

They always said that lonesome town
Would finally get to me
But lonesome is the only way
That I truly feel free

Well lonesome town is crowded
And every one's the same
With fresh new starts and broken hearts
Where no one knows your name
Though lonesome town is crowded
I'm always first in line
With fresh new starts for broken hearts
And wasting all my time

Well lonesome town its got its good
It's sure enough got it's bad
Like walkin' round that big dance floor
For the date you wish you had

They always said that lonesome town
Would finally get to me
But lonesome is the only way
That I truly feel free

Well lonesome town is crowded
And every one's the same
With fresh new starts and broken hearts
Where no one knows your name
Though lonesome town is crowded
I'm always first in line
With fresh new starts for broken hearts
And wasting all my time

You're either born to lose
Or you're born to win
That's just what I've found
But I've come to accept the fact
I've come to accept the fact
Cause I've come to accept the fact
That I was born in lonesometown
