When I'm Alone I'm Lonesome 1911

I feel blue, lonesome too,
just because I'm all alone,
I confess lonesomeness,
seems to be the only friend I own.
No one cares to hear my woes,
friendless like a faded rose,
I'm unhappy, goodness knows,
when I'm all alone.

When I'm alone I'm lonesome,
when I'm alone I'm blue,
someone kindly listen to
my sympathy plea,
ev'ry other girl and brother,
has a pal just like a mother
whom they can tell their troubles,
whom they can call their own.
Won't somebody kindly hear me,
linger near me,
come and cheer me,
I'm lonesome when alone.

When I'm alone I'm lonesome,
when I'm alone I'm blue,
someone kindly listen to
my sympathy plea,
ev'ry other girl and brother,
has a pal just like a mother
whom they can tell their troubles,
whom they can call their own.
Won't somebody kindly hear me,
linger near me,
come and cheer me,
I'm lonesome when alone.

One O, O, now you know,
that's the number of my 'phone;
five six eight on the gate,
now you know the number of my home,
Father tries to make me glad,
when he thinks I'm feeling sad,
but there's things you can't tell Dad
when you're all alone.

When I'm alone I'm lonesome,
when I'm alone I'm blue,
someone kindly listen to
my sympathy plea,
ev'ry other girl and brother,
has a pal just like a mother
whom they can tell their troubles,
whom they can call their own.
Won't somebody kindly hear me,
linger near me,
come and cheer me,
I'm lonesome when alone.

When I'm alone I'm lonesome,
when I'm alone I'm blue,
someone kindly listen to
my sympathy plea,
ev'ry other girl and brother,
has a pal just like a mother
whom they can tell their troubles,
whom they can call their own.
Won't somebody kindly hear me,
linger near me,
come and cheer me,
I'm lonesome when alone.
