Now my room has got two windows

But the sunshine never comes through

It's always dark and dreary

Since I broke up being with you

Chorus:

I live on a lonely avenue

My little girl won't say I do

But I feel so sad and blue

And it's all because of you

I could die, (I could die, I could die, I could die, I could die,)

I could die, (I could die, I could die, I could die, I could die,)

Lonely avenue, lonely avenue

Now my cover feels like lead

And my pillow feels like stone

And I toss and turn most every night

I'm not used to being alone

Chorus

I could die, I could die, I could die, I could die, I could die,

(I could die, I could die, I could die, I could die,)

Lonely avenue, lonely avenue

Now I've been so sad and lonesome

Ever since you left this town

If I thought about the money

I've been a-highway bound

Chorus
