Lonely Ol Night Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

She calls me up and says baby it's a lonely ol' night 

I don't know I'm just so scared and lonely all at the same time 

Nobody told us it was gonna work out this way, no, no, no, no, no 

I guess they knew we'd work it out in our own way 

CHORUS 

It's a lonely ol' night 

Can I put my arms around you 

It's a lonely ol' night 

Custom made for two lonely people like me and you 

Radio playing softly some singer's sad sad song 

He's singing about standing in the shadows of love 

I guess he feels awfully alone 

She says I know exactly what he means, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

And it's a sad, sad feeling when you're living on those in-betweens 

But it's okay 

CHORUS 

She calls me baby, she calls everybody baby 

It's a lonely ol' night but ain't they all 

CHORUS
