[Verse 1]
I've got no fire inside of me
Can't be the man I try to be
Oh, Mr. Lonesome hangin' 'round
Don't want to see nobody
Don't want to be nobody
Oh, Mr. Lonesome got me down
[Verse 2]
He makes me leave the party
When folks are laughing hearty
Happiness is one thing he can't stand
Nobody wants or needs me
I go just where he leads me
Oh, Mr. Lonesome got my hand
[Verse 3]
And so my whole life over
Each day is like the other
But still, if my one wish could be
If that old chain that binds me
Breaks when true love finds me
And Mr. Lonesome sets me free
[Outro]
Oh Mr. Lonesome got me down
