"I Know What It Means to Be Lonesome"

(James Brockman - James Kendis - Nat Vincent)

Well, I know what it means to be lonesome
And I know what it means to be blue
Oh, I know what it means to be lonesome and dream
When nobody misses you.

Well, my sweet baby left me this morning
When the clock was just striking four
And the sweet smiling face of my darling
I may never see anymore.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I hate the night that we parted
For nobody knows what I've been through
Well, I'd give all I own just to have you back home
'Cause I'm lonesome, lonesome dear for you.

Well, I know what it means to be lonesome
And I know what it means to be blue
Oh, I know what it means to be lonesome and dream
When nobody misses you...
