well my room has got two windows
but the sunshine never come through
it's always dark and lonesome
since I broke off baby with you

i live on a lonely avenue
my girl wouldn't say I do
well I feel so sad and blue
and it's all because of you
you know I could cry, I could cry
cos I live on a lonely avenue, yes I do

well my covers they feel like lead
and my pillow it feels like stone
well i've tossed and turned so everynight
i'm not used to being alone

i live on a lonely avenue
my girl wouldn't say I do
well I feel so sad and blue
and it's all because of you
you know I could cry yes I could cry
cos I live on a lonely avenue
yes I do

well i've been so sad and lonesome
ever since you left this town
if I could beg or borrow some money child
woulda been highway bound

but I live on a lonely avenue
my girl wouldn't say I do
i feel so sad and blue
and it's all because of you
you know I could cry, I could cry
i live on a lonely avenue
lonely avenue
