I've got no fire inside of me can't be the man I try to be 

Oh Mr Lonesome hanging round 

Don't wanna see nobody don't wanna be nobody 

Oh Mr Lonesome got me down 

He makes me leave the party when folks are laughin' 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 

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 oh Mr Lonesome got me down
