Lyrics John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp

Lonely Ol' Night

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 no

I guess they knew

We'd work it out in our own way

It's a lonely ol' night

Can I put my arms around you?

It's a lonely ol nigh

Custom made for two lonely people like me and you

Radio playin' softly

Some singer's sad sad song

He's singing about

Standing in the shadows of love

I guess it feels awfully alone

She says I know exactly what he means

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

And it's a sad sad sad sad feeling

When you're living on those in betweens

(But it's ok)

It's a lonely ol' night

Can I put my arms around you?

It's a lonely ol nigh

Custom made for two lonely people like me and you

She calls me baby

She calls everybody baby

It's a lonely ol' night

But ain't they all?

It's a lonely ol' night

Can I put my arms around you?

It's a lonely ol nigh

Custom made for two lonely people like me and you

Girl like me and you

Yeah like me and you
