All Is Loneliness

(Louis Hardin)

All is loneliness before me
Loneliness before me.
Loneliness.

All is loneliness
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me.

All is loneliness
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness.

Loneliness come botherin' 'round my house
Loneliness come botherin'
Loneliness come botherin'
Loneliness come botherin' round my house
Loneliness

Loneliness come worryin' round my door
Loneliness come worryin'
Loneliness come worryin'
Loneliness come worryin' round my door
Loneliness, oh loneliness

All is
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness before me
Loneliness ...

    This is a, a real old tune we used to do a lot, still really care for it. The guys got it off off a guy named Moondog in-a the streets of New York. This is, this beautiful cat who writes poetry and is blind and he looks like a Viking, stands on the corner of 55th and-a 5th Avenue, something like that. 6th Avenue ? He just stands there selling poetry and wearing horns on his head and he's too much and he wrote this song called All Is Loneliness. Really dredging up the past tonight, folks!

    All is loneliness
    Loneliness here for me
    Loneliness here for me.

    All is loneliness

    Lord, loneliness, yeah, I said loneliness.

    I said loneliness come on by my bed

    Every day when I walk home
    I see loneliness
    When I waited for my baby.
    You know I open my front door,
    I said Mr. Loneliness is waiting for me at home
    Lordy, Lord at home, Lord at home, Lo-o-o-rd at home.

    You know, I get home every day, Lord,
    There ain't nobody waiting there, man
    And I ain't got no girlfriends, and I ain't got no boyfriends, man.
    I ain't got no any kind of friends, man, I ain't got no...
    My TV set doesn't work, my radio doesn't work, man.
    I come home there's nothing
    Nothing, man, there's no animals moving,
    There's nothing, man
    Walk in that door seems like I'm sitting there every day, man.

    Lord, loneliness
    Lord, loneliness
    Ah, ah, loneliness
    Loneliness
    Loneliness
    Loneliness
    Loneliness
    Lord.
