Gee, but I'm Lonesome

Gee, but I'm Lonesome - Johnnie Ray

The moon hangs high when the clock strike two

The night drags by while I think of you

I cry and cry till the dawn breaks through

Gee but I'm lonesome

I light the flame beneath my coffee pot

Repeat your name till the coffee is hot

It's all the same if it's good or not

Gee but I'm lonesome

I wait for the mail

But I know that the mailman ain't

Gonna bring any word from you

I weaken and then start weepin' again

'Coz I can't think of anything else to do

I try so hard not to feel so low

'Coz by and by you'd be back I know

So why baby why must I worry so

Gee but I'm lonesome

Well baby darling it's hard to do

Anything else with anybody but you

And gee gee but I'm lonesome
