Lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely

I have nobody for my own

I'm so lonely, I'm Mr. Lonely

I have nobody for my own

I'm so lonely

Yo, this one here

Goes out to all my players out there, man, you know

That got that one good girl, dawg, that's always been there, man

Like, took all the bullshit

But then one day she can't take it no more and decides to leave

Yeah, I woke up in the middle of the night

And I noticed my girl wasn't by my side

Could've sworn I was dreamin' for her

I was feenin' so I had to take a little ride

Backtrackin' on these few years

Tryin' to figure out what I do to make it go bad

'Cause ever since my girl left me

My whole life came crashin', and I'm so

Lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely

Can't believe I had a girl like you

And I just let you walk right out of my life

After all I put you through

You still stuck around and stayed by my side

What really hurt me is I broke your heart

Baby, you a good girl and I had no right

I really wanna make things right

'Cause without you in my life, girl, I'm so

Lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, baby)

I'm so lonely

Been all about the world, ain't never met a girl

That could take the things that you been through

Never thought the day would come

Where you would get up and run

And I would be out chasin' you

'Cause ain't nowhere in the globe I'd rather be

Ain't no one in the globe I'd rather see

Than the girl of my dreams that made me be

So happy, but now so lonel

Lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely

Never thought that I'd be alone

I didn't think you'd be gone this long

I just want you to call my phone

So stop playin', girl, and come on home

Baby girl, I didn't mean to shout

I want me and you to work it out

I never wished that I would ever hurt my baby

And it's drivin' me crazy, 'cause I'm so

Lonely (So lonely)

I'm Mr. Lonely (Mr. Lonely)

I have nobody (I have nobody)

For my own (To call my own, girl)

I'm so lonely (So lonely)
