Lonesome for a Livin’ Blackberry Smoke (Ft. Jamey Johnson)

[Verse 1 - Charlie Starr]
You might say the reason I was put on this Earth
Was to pour out my heart every day
It's just what comes natural like takin’ a breath
I could sing what I never could say
I put quite a few tears into quite a few beers
Yes I've worn my soul on my sleeve
Lay it out there for the whole world to see

[Chorus - Charlie Starr]
Yeah the blues have been my old boss man
And lovesick it knows me by name
You could say I was lonesome for a livin'
And heartache is my claim to fame

[Verse 2 - Jamey Johnson]
I lived all the lyrics for better or for worse
The drinkin’ the cheatin' 'n' the lyin'
Well I guess I walked it just how I talked it
Both eyes wide open but stone blind
I wonder how many angels are waitin' for me
To finally fall down on my knees
And then put me back up on my feet

[Chorus - Jamey Johnson]
Yeah the blues have been my old boss man
And lovesick it knows me by name
You could say I was lonesome for a livin'
And heartache is my claim to fame
