"Lonesome U.S.A." Lyrics (Jason Aldean album)
Written By Mark Wright, Kim Tribble, David Lee Murphy
[Verse 1:]
Drove half way to town last night an' I turned around,
In a field full fireflies makin' such a lonely sound.
As my headlights flashed on a mailbox by the road,
I realized that I was livin' in a new zip code.
[Chorus:]
Well, I'm livin' in Lonesome, U.S.A.
Population one since yesterday.
Livin' an' dyin' in the hell I made,
Since you been gone.
Right now, my mind's in another state.
Ain't enough heart here left to break.
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, U.S.A.
[Verse 2:]
I never knew the sound of silence could be so loud.
It's hard gettin' used to livin' in an empty house.
Yeah, I know I can come an' go any time I please,
But there's some'in' I miss about you waitin' up on me.
[Chorus:]
Well, I'm livin' in Lonesome, U.S.A.
Population one since yesterday.
Livin' an' dyin' in the hell I made,
Since you been gone.
Right now, my mind's in another state.
Ain't enough heart here left to break.
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, U.S.A.
[Verse 3:]
Hey, I could drive all night an' be right here where I am.
An' still be just as lost till you come back.
Hey, I look around here an' it don't take long to see,
Oh, where I am right now's no place to be.
[Instrumental break.]
[Chorus:]
Lonesome, U.S.A.
Population one since yesterday.
Livin' an' dyin' in the hell I made,
Since you been gone.
Right now, my mind's in another state.
Ain't enough heart here left to break.
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, U.S.A.
Hey, I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome U.S.A.
Hey, I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome U.S.A.
[Instrumental to end.]
