Lyric Poncho s Lament
Well the stairs sound so lonely without you
And I ain t made my bed in a week
Coffee stains on the paper I m writing
And I m too choked up inside to speak
And Yes, I know our differences pulled us apart
Never spoke a word heart to heart
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
And I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
Well my guitar still plays your favorite song
though the strings have been outta tune for some time
Every time I strum a cord, I pray out to the lord
That you ll quit your honkey-tonkin sing my song
And I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
So I ll throw another log onto the fire
And I ll admit I m a lousy liar
As the coals die down and flicker
I hear that guitar picker
Play the song we used to sing so long ago
I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
And I m glad, damn glad you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
And I ain t made my bed in a week
Coffee stains on the paper I m writing
And I m too choked up inside to speak
And Yes, I know our differences pulled us apart
Never spoke a word heart to heart
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
And I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
Well my guitar still plays your favorite song
though the strings have been outta tune for some time
Every time I strum a cord, I pray out to the lord
That you ll quit your honkey-tonkin sing my song
And I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
So I ll throw another log onto the fire
And I ll admit I m a lousy liar
As the coals die down and flicker
I hear that guitar picker
Play the song we used to sing so long ago
I m glad that you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
And I m glad, damn glad you re gone
Got the feeling so strong
And I m glad that you re gone
But I wish to the lord that you d come home
