Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine never comes through
You know it's always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you
I live on a lonely avenue
My little girl wouldn't say, "I do"
Well, I feel so sad and blue
And it's all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could cry
I could die, I could die, I could die
Because I live on a lonely avenue, lonely avenue
(Now my)
Covers, they feel like lead
And my pillow, it feels like stone
Well, I've tossed and turned so ev'ry night
I'm not used to being alone
Now I've been so sad and lonesome
Since you've left this town
If I could beg or borrow the money
Child, I would be a highway bound
