Lonely Too Long
You got a stock portfolio
I keep my change in a Dixie cup
You want a dog with a pedigree
I like any skinny thing that wanders up
You got a three-piece attitude
I got a five-piece band
You got a "Save the Whale" bumper sticker
And I'm a honky-tonk man
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
Now it ain't like I'm particular
When it comes to love
Wherever my heart leads
I do my level best to back it up
But to a real caretaker baby
In a league on your own
There ain't nothin' left for me to do
But take my ball and go home
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
Must've been lonely
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
I must've been lonely way too long
Yeah
Must've been lonely, yeah
Must've been lonely way too long
Must've been lonely
I keep my change in a Dixie cup
You want a dog with a pedigree
I like any skinny thing that wanders up
You got a three-piece attitude
I got a five-piece band
You got a "Save the Whale" bumper sticker
And I'm a honky-tonk man
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
Now it ain't like I'm particular
When it comes to love
Wherever my heart leads
I do my level best to back it up
But to a real caretaker baby
In a league on your own
There ain't nothin' left for me to do
But take my ball and go home
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
Must've been lonely
You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine
I got to wonder, just what it is
That got me into this
I must've been lonely too long
Right about the time that you came along
Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love
I must've let my weakness get a little strong
I must've been lonely way too long
I must've been lonely way too long
Yeah
Must've been lonely, yeah
Must've been lonely way too long
Must've been lonely
