LONELY GIRL

Lonely girl, oh lonely girl

Why is it you can’t see?

See the pretty girl walking down the street

Such a lovely woman, all the men would like to meet

She don’t have any trouble, when it comes round to romance

Just a wink from her eye, as she passes him by

Any man will soon make his advance

But what about the lonely girl?

The one that’s left behind

The poor unwanted lonely girl

That life treats so unkind

Who cares about her lonely life?

Who cares about her grief?

Everyone thinks that she’s ok

It’s their genuine belief

Lonely girl, oh lonely girl

Why is it you can’t see?

Oh lonely girl, why was Mother Nature so unkind to you?

Oh lonely girl, why is it you’re not pretty like the rest?

Oh lonely girl, the men they never, ever seem to notice you?

But lonely girl, you never try to look your best

Lonely girl, oh lonely girl

Why is it you can’t see?

So go out and get your hair done

Put on some fancy clothes

Take off those NH spectacles

Put some powder on your nose

Put on a happy face

Go see some friends you’d like to meet

Then all the men’ll be talking

About you walking down the street

Lonely girl, oh lonely girl

Why is it you can’t see?

That with a little care and makeup

You’ll be as pretty as can be

Lonely girl, oh lonely girl

Why is it you can’t see?
