Listen fellas, looking out your window on a rainy, rainy day
Thinking about how much you love your girl and if she feels the same way
So you call her on the telephone and you hear her saying tell him I'm not home
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
Divide from the one you love, you're not the one she's thinking of
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
You and your baby got the lights way down low
And she whispers hold me close and never, never let me go
And just when you think you've got it made, she calls you by another fella's name
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
Lord, divide from the one you love, you're not the one she's thinking of
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
Fellas listen to me, you settle down, work hard each and every day
You buy your woman everything, then she ups and walks away
And nothing you take will ease the pain, I tell you it's a load out dirty shame
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
Lord, divide from the one you love, you're not the one she's thinking of
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
Lord, divide from the one you love, you're not the one she's thinking of
It's a sad, oh, lonesome feeling
