Twenty Seven Days I've Been Out On The Road
I'm A Nervous Wreck I Gotta Get Back Home
There's A Young Bride Waiting For Me All Alone
Lord How She Misses Me

I Can See Her Sittin' In The Kitchen Chair
In A Cotton Dress With Her Long Black Hair
But A Woman Ain't Pretty If A Man Ain't There
That I Can't Afford To Be

It's A Shame It's A Shame
She Won't Be The One To Blame
Oh The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
Is The Heart Of A Lonely Girl

Like A Red-tail Fox To A Blue Tick Hound
She's The Hottest Thing For Miles Around
All Them Other Boys In Our Hometown
Got Tricks Hid Up Their Sleeves

Now It Ain't Her That I Don't Trust
She's Pretty And Pure As Diamond Dust
But Lonesome Is This Lonesome Girl
She Can't Help For What She Needs

It's A Shame It's A Shame
She Won't Be The One To Blame
Oh The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
Is The Heart Of A Lonely Girl

The Heart Of A Lonely Girl
The Heart Of A Lonely Girl
It's The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
The Heart Of A Lonely Girl

Daddy Was A Rambler Just Like Me
I Guess The Apple Don't Fall Too Far From The Tree
When I Ask Why Momma Had To Go That Day
Well He Don't Know And She Won't Say

It's A Shame It's A Shame
She Won't Be The One To Blame
Oh The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
Is The Heart Of A Lonely Girl

Yeah It's A Shame It's A Shame
She Won't Be The One To Blame
Yeah The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
Is The Heart Of A Lonely Girl
Yeah The Hurtinest Thing In The Whole Wide World
Is The Heart Of A Lonely Girl
