[Verse 1]
Well, now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine never comes through
You know it's always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you
I live on a lonely avenue (Woo)
My little girl wouldn't say, "I do" (Woo)
Well, I feel so sad and blue (Woo)
And it's all because of you
[Chorus]
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry, Lord
(Could die, could die) Could die
I live on a lonely, a lonely avenue
[Verse 2]
Now, my covers, they feel like lead (Lead)
And my pillow, it feels like stone (Stone)
Well, I've tossed and turned so every night
I'm not used to being alone (Lone)
I live on a lonely avenue (Woo)
My little girl wouldn't say, "I do" (Woo)
Well, I feel so sad and blue (Woo)
And it's all because of you
[Chorus]
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry, Lord
Could die, could die, could die
I live on a lonely, (Lonely) lonely avenue
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Now, I've been so sad and lonesome
Since you left this town (Woo)
If I could beg or borrow the money, child (Woo)
I would be highway bound (Woo)
I live on a lonely avenue (Woo)
My little girl wouldn't say, "I do" (Woo)
Well, I feel so sad and blue (Woo)
And it's all because of you
[Chorus]
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry, Lord
Could die, could die, could die
I live on a lonely (Lonely), live on a lonely avenue
[Outro]
(Walkin' down a lonely avenue) Feels so lonely
(Walkin' down a lonely avenue)
(Walkin' down a lonely avenue)
(Talkin' down a lonely avenue)
