Why Should I Be Lonely - Lefty Frizzell

Oh, the moon lights so bright makes me lonely tonight

Everything seems to make me feel blue here

I’m down hearted now I’m lonesome somehow

'Cause you are proving untrue

Why should I be so lonely, why should I be so sad?

Though another is taking from me the best pal that I’ve ever had

She’s taking the sunshine with her, leaving the clouds for me

But why should I be so lonesome when there’s nobody lonesome for me?

Oh, the violets so blue are calling for you

The roses so sweet make me lonely

They bring to my mind a sweet happy time

When your love was only for me

Why should I be so lonely, why should I be sad?

Though another is taking from me the best pal that I’ve ever had

She’s taking the sunshine with her, leaving the clouds for me

But why should I be so lonesome when there’s nobody lonesome for me?
