In case you guys have never sat down and actually listened to a White Stripes album, I have to recommend it! I'm sure most of us have heard one or two of their bigger hits (Fell In Love With a Girl, My Doorbell) but for music lovers like me, the real gems on those albums are their quirky renditions of various styles of music. It's funny because I'm a music listener who usually DEMANDS full, rich voice talent out of my favorite artists...but for some reason Jack White's shrively, weenie-voice works in this case.
This one's sort of a country ballad/faux bluegrass. Download it today!
I'm Lonely (But I Ain't That Lonely Yet) - The White Stripes
Well I miss my mother,
And I miss being her son.
As crazy as I was,
Guess I wasn't much of one.
Sometimes I miss her so much,
I want to hop on the next jet.
And I get lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet.
And I love my sister,
Lord knows how I've missed her.
She loves me,
And she knows I won't forget.
And sometimes I get jealous,
Of all her little pets.
And I get lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.
I roll over in bed,
Looking for someone to touch.
There's a girl that I know of,
But don't ask for much.
She's homely and she's cranky,
And her hair's in a net.
And I'm lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.
Are you my friend when I need one?
I need someone to be one.
I take anybody I can get.
And sometimes I wanna call you,
And I feel like a pet.
And I'm lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.
I go down to the river,
Filled with regret.
I go down and I wonder,
If there was any reason left.
I left just before my lungs could get wet,
I'm lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.
And I love my sister,
Lord knows how I've missed her.
She loves me,
And she knows I won't forget.
Sometimes I get jealous,
Of all her little pets.
And I get lonely but I ain't that lonely yet.
Yeah I get LONELY but I ain't that LONELY YET!
