Everybody's going out and having fun
I'm just a fool for staying home and having none
I can't get over how he set me free
Oh, lonesome me
A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging round
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town
A lovesick fool is blind and just can't see
Oh, lonesome me
Well, I'll bet he's not like me
He's out and fancy free
Flirting with the girls with all his charms
Oh, but I still love him so
And brother, don't you know
I'd welcome him right back here in my arms
There must be some way I can lose
These lonesome blues
Forget about the past and find
Somebody new
I've thought of everything from A to Z
Oh, lonesome me
Well, I'll bet he's not like me
He's out and fancy free
Flirting with the girls with all his charms
Oh, but I still love him so
And brother, don't you know
I'd welcome him right back here in my arms
There must be some way I can lose
These lonesome blues
Forget about the past and find
Somebody new
I've thought of everything from A to Z
Oh, lonesome me
Oh, lonesome me
Oh, lonesome me
