Lonely Avenue

Lonely Avenue:Ray Charles. #6 on the R&B Charts on ATLANTIC Records in 1956. INTRO: #1. Now my room has got two windows but the sunshine never comes through. You know it’s always dark and dreary..since I broke off baby with you. I live on a lonely avenue..my little girl wouldn’t say I do. Well I feel so sad and blue..and it’s all because of you. CHORUS: I could cry I could cry I could cry..I could die I could die I could die. Because I live on a lonely avenue..lonely avenue. #2. Now my covers they feel like lead and my pillow it feels like stone. Well I’ve tossed and turned so every night I’m not used to being alone. I live on a lonely avenue..my little girl wouldn’t say I do. Well I feel so sad and blue..and it’s all because of you. CHORUS: I could cry I could cry I could cry..I could die I could die I could die. Because I live on a lonely avenue..lonely avenue. (Lonely avenue..lonely avenue..) INTERLUDE: .. (lonely avenue..lonely avenue..) #3. Now I’ve been so sad and lonesome..since you’ve left this town. You know if I could beg or borrow the money child I would be A-highway bound. I live on a lonely avenue..my little girl wouldn’t say I do. Well I feel so sad and blue..and it’s all because of you. CHORUS: I could cry I could cry I could cry..I could die I could die I could die. Because I live on a lonely avenue..lonely avenue. OUTRO: lonely avenue..lonely avenue..(end.) A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
