Luxury Liner (Parsons) 


Luxury liner forty tons of steel if I don't find my baby  now
I guess I never will
I've been a lost soul for a long long time
I've been around
Everybody  oughta to know what's on my mind
You think I'm lonesome so do I  so do  I
Well I'm the kind of guy who likes to make a livin running  round
And I don't need a stranger  to let me know my baby's let me down
You think I'm lonesome so do I   so do I
Luxury liner  forty tons of steel  no one in this whole wide world
Can change the way  I feel
I've been a lost soul for a long long time
I've been around
Everybody  oughta to know what's on my mind
You think I'm lonesome so do I  so do I

The International Submarine Band
"Safe At Home"   Shiloh Records 1967

Luxury Liner (Parsons) early version


well the luxury liner 40 tons of steel
no-one in this whole wide world shares the way I feel
I've been a long lost soul for a long lost time
I've been around, everybody ought to know what's on my mind
you think I'm lonesome, so do I, so do I
well I'm the kind of guy who likes to make his living run around
and I don't need a stranger who tells me that my baby let me down
you think I'm lonesome, so do I, so do I

sung by Gram Parsons
