[Verse 1]
Drove half way to town last night and I turned around
In a field of fireflies makin' such a lonely sound
As my headlights flashed on a mailbox by the road
I realized that I was livin' in a new zip code

[Chorus]
Well, I'm livin' in Lonesome, USA
Population one, since yesterday
Livin' and dyin' in the hell I made since you been gone
Right now, my mind's in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA

[Verse 2]
I never knew the sound of silence could be so loud
It's hard gettin' used to livin' in an empty house
Yeah, I know I can come and go any time I please
But there is somethin' I miss about you waitin' up on me

[Chorus]
Well, I'm livin' in Lonesome, USA
Population one, since yesterday
Livin' and dyin' in the hell I made since you been gone
Right now, my mind's in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA

[Bridge]
Hey, I could drive all night and be right here where I am
And still be just as lost 'til you come back
Hey, I look around here and it don't take long to see
Oh, where I am right now's no place to be

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Lonesome, USA
Population one since yesterday
Livin' and dyin' in the hell I made since you been gone
Right now, my mind is in another state
Ain't enough heart here left to break
I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome, USA
Hey, I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome USA
Hey, I'm livin' in Lonesome, Lonesome USA

Jason Aldean

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
