There's a wall all around you I just can't seem to get by Sometime I'd like to get inside Maybe just say hi Why don't you come out and play It's such, a beautiful day I know if ya come outside Maybe I could get you to stay I'd rather be lonesome alone Than lonesome with the one I love I'd rather be lonesome alone Than lonesome with the one I love Be my sweetest friend I don't want to be just another man Sure seem like a mighty dark place The times I've been inside Seems like when you go in there All ya wanna do is hide Can't see, there's no sun in there I think you better come outside I could knock in every day One day maybe you'll decide (4x:) I'd rather be lonesome alone Than lonesome with the one I love
