Well, we promised you another show, so I'll get my good buddy Merle Travis to give me a guitar intro for I Cast a Lonesome Shot.
Every evening when the sun goes down, I sit here in my room.
The lamplight streaming o'er me projects my lonely gloom.
My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls and the cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls.
He's always by my side at night, no matter where I go.
He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow.
He follows me across the steps.
He's up and down the halls and the cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls.
I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame by writing shadows twisting as though it is in pain.
I'm crying.
I hate to forget a memory my heart recalls, and I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls.
Everything I hope for and all the things I planned are as empty as this bottle that I hold in my hand.
I'm buried in the deepest depths of love and life.
I'm buried in the deepest depths of love and life.
I throw down my little basket walls and I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls.
I cast a lonesome shadow...
...on these lonely, lonely walls.
Thank you.
