Oh, Lonesome Me

Words and Music by Don Gibson




Performed by Johnny Tillotson

Everybody's going out and having fun
I'm just a fool for staying home and having none
I can't get over how she set me free
Oh, lonesome me

A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging around
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town
A lovesick fool so blind I just can't see
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
Oh, but I still love her so and brother don't you know
I'd welcome her 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

I'll bet she's not like me, she's out and fancy free
Flirting with the boys with all her charms
Oh, but I still love her so and brother, don't you know
I'd welcome her 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...
