Linda Hargrove - Lonesome City Blues Lyrics

A country girl leaves home with a dream of what she'll find
Leavin' what she's always felt above
Leavin' with a future that she's seen inside her mind
Lookin' for a taste of life and love

If there's magic in the city, it's a pity
'Cause I ain't seen none yet--
And it's that country life I can't forget
And I'd gladly trade the shoes upon my feet to take her place
Just before she steps aboard that train
If I were in her shoes I know I'd turn around, turn around
And trade away these Lonesome City Blues.

A country girl is bored with all the folks she's know n so well;
Bored with all the faces that she's seen
Bored with all the gossip that the grown-ups find to tell;
Lookin' for a way to fill a need.

If there's magic in the city, it's a pity
'Cause I ain't seen none yet--
And it's that country life I can't forget
And I'd gladly trade the shoes upon my feet to take her place
Just before she steps aboard that train
If I were in her shoes I know I'd turn around, turn around
And trade away these Lonesome City Blues.
If I were in her shoes I know I'd turn around, turn around
And trade away these Lonesome City Blues.
