Lonely Boy - GOLD, Andrew, Gold

He was born on a summer day

Nineteen fiftyone

And with the slap of a hand

He had landed as an only son.

His mother and father said

What a lovely boy

we’ll teach him

What we learned

oh yes

Just what we learned.

We’ll dress him up warmly

And we’ll send him to school.

It’ll teach him how to fight

To be nobody’s fool

Oh oh what a lonely boy

Oh what a lonely boy

Oh what a lonely boy

In the summer of fiftythree

His mother brought him a sister

And she told him we must atend to her needs

S.he's so much younge’r than you

Well

he ran down the hall

And he cried

Oh how could his parents have lied

When they said he was an only son.

He thought he was the only one

Oh oh what a lonely boy

Goodbye Mama

goodbye to you

Goodbye Papa

I’m pushin’on through

He left home on a winter day

Nineteen sixtynine

And he hoped to find all the love

He had lost in that earlier time

Well his sister grew up And she married a man

He gave her a son

Oh yes a lovely son

They dressed him up warmly

They send him to school

It taught him how to fight

To be nobody’s fool.

Oh oh oh what a lonely boy
