Everybody's lonesome for somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Everybody's thinking 'bout somebody else But nobody's thinking 'bout me When the time rolls around for me to lay down and die I bet I'll have to go and hire me someone to cry Everybody's lonesome for somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Everybody's longing for somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Everybody's dreaming about somebody else But nobody dreams about me All I need is a bride who wants a big-hearted groom I wouldn't care if she come riding in on a broom Everybody's lonesome for somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Everybody's planning about somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Everybody's crazy 'bout somebody else But nobody's crazy 'bout me Oh, I shined up my shoes and then I slicked down my hair Put on my Sunday suit, but I ain't goin' nowhere Everybody's lonesome for somebody else Nobody's lonesome for me Nobody's lonesome for me Nobody's lonesome for me Nobody's lonesome
