Lyrics
Lonely Boy Blue
CHORUS:
Lonely boy blue
What?ya gonna do
Lonely boy blue
Now that she?s through with you
Lonely boy blue
What?ya gonna do
Lonely boy blue
She?s been untrue
You woke up this mornin? she wasn?t in bed
The note on your mirror it spun your head
She said she was leavin? she?d found a new guy
Good-bye good-bye
You walk down the street with your thoughts in a haze
Why does the way to work seem like a maze
You wonder tonight if you?ll pass the test
Of getting some rest
Repeat Chorus
You thought you?d get by with the status quo
Oh my Lord no no no
You paid no attention to the day by day
So she slipped away
You took it for granted and now you know
That?s not how she wanted to go
You treated her worse than this other guy may
So she made you pay
Repeat Chorus
Do you fight for her if you get the chance
Hang on her string dance her dance
Or turn up your nose and act cavalier
While drowning in beer
Do you chalk this one up to experience
And hope next time that you?re less dense
Or through up your hands and say the hell with it
And become celibate
Repeat Chorus
