I was by myself

Tryin' to get my thoughts together

Tryin' to figure out me something

That would make my life a little better

So i came up with one thing

And i don't think i'm wrong

Ain't nothing but a fool want to live his life alone



So i got to get myself somebody

Somebody to call my own

Cause it ain't nothing but a fool want to live his life all alone



From log rollers to ditch diggers

From beggars to presidents

Whoah, everybody's got somebody if they got a little sense



So i got to get myself somebody

Somebody to call my own

Ain't nothing but a fool want to live his life all alone



Gettin' used to my baby's ways is the price i'm gonna pay

Gonna love her everyday when she talk too much and not know what she say

Gonna hold on to you baby like a dog holds on to a bone

Cause nothing in this world want to live his life alone



So i got to get myself somebody

Somebody to call my own

Cause it's nothing but a fool want to live his life all alone...all alone



Well i get so lonely sometimes...so lonely

Oh i get so lonely sometimes...i'm all alone

I'm all alone...
