I decided to record Ricky Nelson's rendition of this poignant song from 1958, "Lonesome Town" - as a tribute to my Acoustic Electric Carlo Robelli Guitar that I'm selling - to be my last recording on it. 

Peace~

Words by Baker Knight, 1958

There's a place where lovers go
To cry their troubles away
And they call it Lonesome Town
Where the broken hearts stay

You can buy a dream or two
To last you all through the years
And the only price you pay
Is a heart full of tears

Going down to lonesome town
Where the broken hearts stay
Goin' down to lonesome town
To cry my troubles away

In the town of broken dreams,
The streets are filled with regret
Maybe down in lonesome town
I can learn to forget

Maybe down in lonesome town
I can learn to forget.
