Merle Haggard
I Don’t Have Any Love Around
I'm tired of pretending and tired of defending
An option to smile or to frown
It's great to be single, but it's hell to be lonely
I don't have any love around
I try to stay sober and always be friendly
Sometimes I really get down
And friends try to cheer me, guess they didn't hear me
I don't have any love around
I don't have any love around
I've tried all my life
And I'm still lonely now
I don't have any love around
I'm not complaining, but I'm tired of explaining
The tears in the eyes of a clown
It's great to be single, but it's hell to be lonely
I don't have any love around
I don't have any love around
