I've seen the sun for the first time
In a week or so
I wipe the sleep from my eyes
I've got nowhere to go
A cup of coffee in my hand
I've got me a smoke
There nothing doin'
I just wanna be alone

The right end of the sunrise
It sure looks nice
To see a new day taking shape
Not startin' with no night
Well I been rollin' along on a thin dime
And I'm happy to be home
Please forgive me, I just wanna be alone

Well I'm gonna finish this pot of coffee
And I'm gonna put me another on
Well I might grab my thread-bear martin
And pick me out a song
I know I'll sit right here, I'll smoke one more
And just enjoy the dawn
I'm not angry, I just wanna be alone

Spent my lifetime runnin' around
It suits me fine
Shakin' hands and one night stands
That's what gets me by
But the days gettin' short
And the songs getting' long
It's time to go
No, I'm not angry, I just wanna be alone

Well I'm gonna finish this pot of coffee
And I'm gonna put me another on
Well I might grab my thread-bear martin
And pick me out a song
I know I'll sit right here, I'll smoke one more
And just enjoy the dawn
I'm not angry, I just wanna be alone

Please forgive me, I just want to be alone
There's nothin' doin'
I just wanna be alone
