The New Lost City Ramblers often said that their next song would be "I'm so lonesome in the saddle since my horse died." It was a joke, not a song. They had many other similar titles, like "I'm so miserable here without you, it's almost like having you here".

I recall this one line "song" being performed on the Gong Show (1976 - 1978).

It is a real song. I have it on CD by Russell Thornberry. You can find it on Youtube
