[Verse 1]
We got Debbie [?] and socialites
And mamas from the PTA
We got bags of reds dressed up in white
And little black dress divorces[Pre-Chorus]
Long live the blues
They're keeping me in business
Someone to dance, someone to party
Whatever they need, they call me
[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely[Verse 2]
Yeah, some are in from outta town
Just lookin' for some fun
Pour a couple thousand more
Yeah, I can be the one[Pre-Chorus]
Long live the blues
I'm backed up to November
You can find me in the book or an bathroom wall
When they all want a rendezvous they call
[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely[Interlude]
(Oh, play that steel, Paul)[Bridge]
So if you got a girl, you better treat her right
You better never tell a lie
You better never start a fight
'Cause when she hangs up on you
Guess who's on the other line?
It's never hard to find[Chorus]
Mr. Lonely, Mr. Good-Time
Mr. One-You're-Gonna-Want-On-A-Saturday-Night
When you're lonely, lying in the dark
I'm the number that you know by broken heart
No, I ain't Mr. Right, I'm Mr. Right-Now
The one all the girls are talking about
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
The one and only, Mr. Lonely
Long live the blues
