Lyrics

I got them weary weary lonesome blues

I am experiencing deep fatigue and sadness, known as lonesome blues.

Feeling so lonesome bout' to cry

Feeling extremely lonely, on the verge of tears.


I turned my back on my true love

I have turned away from my true love.

Can't tell the day from night

Unable to distinguish between day and night due to emotional turmoil.

I'm going down and catch that midnight train

Deciding to catch a midnight train, expressing a desire to leave.

And I ain't never comin' back

Firm decision to leave and never return.


I got them weary weary lonesome blues

Reiteration of the weary and lonesome feelings.

And I'm gonna ride em' all away from here

Determined to ride away from the current situation.

I got them weary weary lonesome blues

Continued expression of deep weariness and loneliness.

Cause I found out that love don't pay

Realization that love hasn't been rewarding.


The only one that I did love

The person I loved has chosen a different path.

Has gone another way

Reflection on a past love that has become untrue.

And I kissed my last I used to

Recalling the last time I kissed someone I used to love.

Cause you're love has proved to be untrue

Realization that the love received was not genuine.


I got them weary weary lonesome blues

Reiteration of the weariness and lonesomeness.

And I don't know what to do

Expressing confusion about what to do in this situation.


I got them weary weary lonesome blues

Repeating the feeling of weariness and loneliness.

And I'm gonna pack my grip and go

Deciding to leave and pack belongings.

I hate to turn my back on you

Expressing reluctance to turn away from a loved one.

For you know I love you so

Acknowledging love for the person despite the decision to leave.

But you will never love me Dear

Believing that the love will not be reciprocated.

So I'm a gonna drift away from here

Deciding to drift away due to the perceived lack of reciprocated love.

I got them weary weary lonesome blues

Reiteration of weariness and lonesomeness.

And I'm gonna get away from here

Determined to escape from the current situation.
