Lonesome Child - Ernie Hendrickson

Lonesome Child Lyrics

Send my Love to Mama and the whole family.
Send my love to anyone who remembers me.
I'm out in the wilderness, out in the freezin' cold.
I'm out in the dark night, where the forewinds blow.
And tell the good people of the community
I sure appreciate them for all they did for me.
And to all my good friends, I think of you and smile
Underneath the night sky out here in the wild.
I'm a lonesome child.
I'm a lonesome child.
Tell my dear sister, so young and innocent
I often think of her and the times we've spent.
And to her companion, who promised her to wed
Tell him I respect him. I think I left that unsaid.
And to my dear brother, in whose footsteps I did walk
I'd sure like to see him. Yeah, I wish that we could talk.
His heart was always so big. That was just his style.

I miss seeing him around. It sure has been awhile.
I'm a lonesome child.
I'm a lonesome child.
And to anybody, who helped me down the line
I hope things are well that you're doing fine.
Me I'm stuck between two worlds, one of sorrow and one of bliss.
I'm caught between a hurricane and a tornado twist.
And to the society to which i just couldn't fit
I couldn't live like that anymore so I had to quit.
I'm out here chasin' the summer's dream where the earth meets the sky.
I'm climbin' up the mountain where you can see for many miles.
I'm a lonesome child
I'm a lonesome child
I'm a lonesome child
A lonesome child
