Lonely Star
What have you done?
You've got the people
On the run
Lonely Star
Who creates fear
You can't expect
The crowds to cheer
The sun is up, it's time to go
A song plays on the radio
The roof is down, the head is clear
And men in suits are nowhere near
The gun is aimed, it's time to shoot
They should have found another route
The truth is known, but is denied
When more than just a man has died
Lonely Star
You've found your fame
Now everybody
Knows your name
Lonely Star
Out on a high
A single lady
Left to cry
What have you done?
You've got the people
On the run
Lonely Star
Who creates fear
You can't expect
The crowds to cheer
The sun is up, it's time to go
A song plays on the radio
The roof is down, the head is clear
And men in suits are nowhere near
The gun is aimed, it's time to shoot
They should have found another route
The truth is known, but is denied
When more than just a man has died
Lonely Star
You've found your fame
Now everybody
Knows your name
Lonely Star
Out on a high
A single lady
Left to cry
