Lonely Ol' Night - John Mellencamp

She calls me up and says baby it’s a lonely ol' night

I don’t know I’m just so scared and lonely all at the same time

Nobody told us it was gonna work out this way No, no, no, no, no I guess they knew we’d work it out in our own way

Chorus

It’s a lonely ol' night

Can I put my arms around you

It’s a lonely ol' night

Custom made for two lonely people like me and you

Radio playing softly some singer’s sad sad song

He’s singing about standing in the shadows of love

I guess he feels awfully alone

She says I know exactly what he means Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And it’s a sad, sad feeling when you’re living on those in-betweens

But it’s okay

Chorus

She calls me Baby She calls everybody Baby

It’s a lonely ol' night but ain’t they all

Chorus
