Now my room has got two windows But the sunshine never comes through You know, it's always dark and dreary Since I broke up with you, baby I live on a lonely avenue My love don't say I do But I feel so sad and blue You know, it's all because of you I could cry, I could cry Whoa, I need somebody Because I live on a lonely avenue You know, my cover, it feel like lead And my pillow, it feel like stone But I toss and turn every night I'm not used to being alone I live on a lonely avenue My love don't say I do But I feel so sad and blue You know, it's all because of you I could cry, I could cry Whoa, I need somebody Because I live on a lonely avenue Now I live so sad and lonesome Since you left this town You know, if I could beg or borrow the money Child, I would be a-highway bound I live on a lonely, lonely avenue My girl wouldn't say I do But I feel so sad and blue And it's all because of you I could cry, I could cry, baby Whoa, I need somebody Because I live on a lonely avenue
