Everybody's going out and having fun I'm a fool for staying home and having none. I can't get over how she set me free. Oh, lonesome me.
There must be some way that I can lose these lonesome blues Forget about my past and find someone new I've thought of everything from A to Z Oh, lonesome me.
I'll bet she's not like me. She's out and fancy free, Flirting with the boys with all her charms But I still love her so, And brother don't you know I'd welcome her right back here in my arms
