Merle Haggard - Why Should I Be Lonely lyrics

[Verse1] Oh, the moon lights so bright makes me lonely tonight Everything seems to make me feel blue here I'm down hearted now i'm lonesome somehow 'Cause you are proving untrue But why should i be so lonely Why should i be so sad Though another is taking from me The best pal that i ever had [Chorus] She's taking the sunshine with her And leaving the clouds for me But why should i be so lonesome When there's nobody lonesome for me [Verse 2] The violets so blue are calling for you The roses so sweet make me lonely They bring to my mind a sweet happy time When your love was only for me But why should i be so lonely Why should i be so sad Though another is taking from me The best pal that i ever had [Chorus]
