Now my room has got two windows but the sunshine never comes thru,
|
You know it's always dark and dreary since I broke off, baby, with
|
You!
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I live on a lonely avenue,
|
My little girl wouldn't say, "I do".
|
Well, I feel so sad and blue
|
And it's all because of you.
|
I could cry, I could cry, i could cry,
|
I could die, I could die, I could die,
|
Because I live on a lonely avenue, lonely avenue.
|
|
(Now my) covers they feel like lead and my pillow it feels like
|
Stone,
|
Well, I've tossed and turned so ev'ry night,
|
I'm not used to being alone!
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Now I've been so sad and lonesome since you've left this town,
|
If I could beg or borrow the money, child, I would be a highway
|
Bound!
|
|
[Chorus]
|
