Now someday soon she's coming back
That's just what I believe
That's my lonesome hearted foolosophy

That a jukebox, smoke, and whiskey
Will heal a broken soul
No doubt I'll be remembered as hillbilly Socrates
With my lonesome hearted foolosophy

Well I know if I keep drinking
That somehow I won't hurt
And it won't take forever
To get me over her
Now someday soon she's coming back

That's my lonesome hearted foolosophy
When my lonesome hearted foolosophy
