Lonely Avenue Lyrics

by Ray Charles

Ray Charles Lonely Avenue Lyrics

in 1956.
INTRO: Ebm
#1.
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.
CHORUS:
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.
#2.
Now, my covers they feel like lead and my pillow, it feels like
stone.
Well, I've tossed and turned so every night, I'm not used to
being alone.
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.
CHORUS:
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.
(Lonely avenue..lonely avenue..)
INTERLUDE: Db Ab Eb Db..Ab Abm Ab (lonely avenue..lonely avenue..)
#3.
Now, I've been so sad and lonesome..since you've left this town.
You know if I could beg or borrow the money, child, I would be
A-highway bound.
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.
CHORUS:
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.
OUTRO:
lonely avenue..lonely avenue..(end.)
