Everybody's lonesome for somebody else
But nobody's lonesome for me
Everybody's thinking of somebody else
Nobody thinks about me
When the time rolls around
For me to lay down and die
I guess I'll have to go and hire me
Someone to cry
Everybody's lonesome for somebody else
Nobody's lonesome for me
Everybody's longing for somebody else
But nobody's longing for me
Everybody's dreaming 'bout somebody else
Nobody dreams about me
Now I ain't had a kiss
Since I fell out of my crib
I think that I've been cheated
Out of my rib
Everybody's lonesome for somebody else
Nobody's lonesome for me
