Everyone tells me,
"It's gonna be fine.
Sooner or later,
The sunshine will shine.
No use to worry,
There's plenty of time. "
Nothin' to read
And the radio's dead
I spoke to myself
Didn't like what I said
Maybe I'll go for
A walk in my head
Oooh-eee...
Left all alone
Your mama's gone workin'
She ain't comin' home
Where can you go
When there's nowhere to go?
Put on another record,
Then play it once more
It sounds like it was
When we played it before
If only somebody
Would knock at my door
Oooh-eee...
Left all alone
Your mama's gone workin'
She ain't comin' home
Where can you go
When there's nowhere to go?
They were all very nice
When they said I was through
The trade had gone quiet
There was nothin' to do
They were certain
I'd find something soon
And they wished me
A good afternoon
Put on some coffee
That's something to do
Then look in the mirror
To see if it's you
But nothin' has changed
Nothin' is new
Oooh-eee...
Left all alone
Your mama's gone workin'
She ain't comin' home
Where can you go
When there's nowhere to go?
