Tim O'brien - Melancholy Moon (not)

Whistles don't get lonesome, I guess no one told Hank 

You never know that might have been the reason why he drank 

What was Willie smokin' when he wrote “Hello Walls' 

Where'd Bob find that cowtown? Did it really have big balls? 

There's no regular combination on that Wabash Cannonball 

And I've never known a telephone to ring right off the wall 

Patsy didn't fall to pieces on a midnight walk alone 

And “T' don't stand for Texas since Rose left San Antone 



Chorus 

Highways don't get lonesome, you're not my sunshine 

Memories don't linger in the hallways of my mind 

I don't believe that Porter ever saw that “Rubber Room' 

And I've neer seen a melancholy moon 



Elvis hated hound dogs, so is it false or true 

No one ever really saw him wearin' blue suede shoes 

Was anybody watchin' when Johnny walked the line 

And I wonder if it really was the last thing on his mind 

If you're minin' coal you'll need more tonnage than sixteen 

I can't recall a time when I've been faded as my jeans 

You'd have to be a fossil to have a heart of stone 

And after “Six Days On The Road', his baby wasn't home 



Chorus 



“Blue Moon Of Kentucky' is more like yellow 

And I've never seen a melancholy moon
