Lonely Too Long

[Verse 1] You got a stock portfolio, I keep my change in a Dixie cup You want a dog with a pedigree, I like any skinny thing that wanders up You got a three-piece attitude, I got a five-piece band You got a "Save the Whales" bumper sticker and I'm a honky-tonk man [Pre-Chorus] You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine I got to wonder, just what it is That got me into this [Chorus] I must've been lonely too long Right about the time that you came along Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love I must've let my weakness get a little strong I must've been lonely way too long [Verse 2] Now it ain't like I'm particular when it comes to love Wherever my heart leads, I do my level best to back it up But to a real [?] baby, you're in a league of your own There ain't nothin' left for me to do But take my ball and go home [Pre-Chorus] You've been goin' your own way and I've been goin' mine I got to wonder, just what it is That got me into this [Chorus] I must've been lonely too long Right about the time that you came along Down right hard-up for any old reason to fall in love I must've let my weakness get a little strong I must've been lonely way too long [Tag] I must've been lonely way too long
