Midland
Mr. Lonely (Live From The Palomino)
[Verse 1]
We got debutantes and socialites
And mamas from the PTA
We got bachelorettes dressed up in white
And little black dress divorcees
[Pre-Chorus]
Long live the blues
They're keeping me in business
Some wanna dance and some wanna party
Whatever they need, they call me
[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
[?] I need to hear you come on
[Verse 2]
Yeah, some are in from outta town
Just lookin' for some fun
For a couple of hours or more
Yeah, I can be the one
[Pre-Chorus]
Long live the blues
I'm booked up to November
You can find me in the book or on a bathroom wall
When they all want a rendezvous, they call
[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
[Interlude]
Oh, play that steel, boys, come on
[Bridge]
So if you got a girl, you better treat her right
You better never tell a lie
You better never start a fight
'Cause when she hangs up on you
Guess who's on the other line?
He's never hard to find
[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
Long live the blues
