"The Lonesome Side Of Town" by Kim Richey (Kim Richey/Angelo/Larry Gottlieb)

1st Verse

There's a place I know too well
Been there and lived to tell
And I can see that you and me are
Almost halfway there
We're gettin' much too close
Feels like I seen a ghost
Took a vow if I made it out
You'd never catch me there again

Chorus

No time to wonder why
No time for long goodbyes
Last chance for gettin' out is
Fadin' with the light
'Cause I don't want to be around
When the night comes down
On the lonesome side of town

2nd Verse

You can hear each footstep fall
Run from shadows on the wall
And every day is just the same
As the one that came before
You won't find any peace
Not here, not on these streets
Misery loves company
And there's enough to go around

(Repeat Chorus)

On the lonesome side
On the lonesome side of town

(Repeat Chorus)

On the lonesome side
On the lonesome side of town
On the lonesome side, whoa-oh
On the lonesome side of town
