Ev'rybody'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.

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.
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.
