Tired of channel surfing
|
el camino ain't working
|
monday night an i'm hurting for company
|
Bummed a ride to the hideaway
|
I'm the only guy in the place
|
Bored silly, wasn't gonna stay
|
Then she walks in, heaven sent
|
And it occurs to me
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
What a good night to be lonely
|
Somebody's looking out for me
|
Oh, what an opportunity
|
Right out of the blue
|
Is it luck or a twist of fate
|
Doesn't really matter either way
|
It's a good night
|
A good night to be lonely
|
|
Dollars worth of quarters
|
Played some songs and ordered
|
One for me and one for her
|
As I tipped my hat
|
|
Said that she felt restless
|
Just moved here from Texas
|
that's when I suggested
|
Maybe she could dance with me
|
She said "thought you'd never ask"
|
|
[Repeat chorus]
|
|
Shes following I'm leading
|
Feels just like I'm dreaming
|
|
What a good night to be lonely
|
Somebody's looking out for me
|
Oh, what an opportunity
|
Right out of the blue
|
Is it luck or a twist of fate
|
Doesn't really matter either way
|
It's a good night, a real good night
|
It's a good night
|
A good night to be lonely
|
