Subject: Lyr Add: ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT (Homer & Jethro)
my singing partner, Margaret Nelson, sings sometimes a parody of "lonesome" that she thinks Homer & Jethro did.

Are you lonesome tonight? If you are, serves you right,
I'm so lucky I've lost you at last,
I can still hear you roar wash the dishes clean the floor,
And then, clean up the glass.
You took me for a boatride, I had to swim back,
Darling I never thought, I'd get out of that sack.
So, I'll miss you my pet, every chance that I get.
And that's why you're lonesome tonight.

probably not Alex Beaton's version, but a good one none the less. Phil Cooper
