Lyrics

It’s lonely out tonight
And the feelin’ just got right for a brand new love song
Somebody done somebody wrong song
Hey, wontcha play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song?
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
So please play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry
A real hurtin’ song about a love that’s gone wrong
‘Cause I don’t want to cry all alone
Hey, wontcha play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song?
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
So please play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry
A real hurtin’ song about a love that’s gone wrong
‘Cause I don’t want to cry all alone
Hey, wontcha play another
Somebody done somebody wrong song?
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
another
Somebody done somebody wrong song?
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby, while I miss my baby
another
Somebody done somebody wrong song?
And make me feel at home
While I miss my baby
