Lonely Avenue – Ray Charles and His Orchestra lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

Now my room has got two windowsBut the sunshine never comes throughYou know it’s always dark and drearySince I broke off, baby with you
I live on a lonely avenueMy little girl wouldn’t say I doWell, I feel so sad and blueAnd it’s all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh(I could die, I could die, I could die) I need help from somebodyBecause I live on a lonely avenue(Lonely avenue) oh, yes sir
Now my covers they feel like leadAnd my pillow it feels like stoneWell, I’ve tossed and turned so every nightI’m not used to being alone
I live on a lonely avenueMy little girl wouldn’t say I doWell, I feel so sad and blueAnd it’s all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh(I could die, I could die, I could die)‘Cause I live on a lonely avenueYes, sir (lonely avenue)
Now I’ve been so sad and lonesomeSince you’ve left this townYou know if I could beg or borrow the moneyChild, I would be a highway bound
I live on a lonely avenueMy little girl wouldn’t say I doWell, I feel so sad and blueYou know it’s all because of you
I could cry, I could cry, I could (cry) oooh(I could die, I could die, I could die) yeahI live on a lonely avenue(Lonely avenue)
