Lonely Boy Lyrics
[00:15.26] He was born on a summer day, 1951
[00:22.82] And with a slap of a hand, he had landed as an only son
[00:31.01] His mother and father said, "What a lovely boy
[00:34.66] We'll teach him what we learned, ah yes, just what we learned
[00:39.04] We'll dress him up warmly, and we'll send him to school
[00:42.78] It'll teach him how to fight to be nobody's fool"
[00:46.65] Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
[00:52.59] Oh, what a lonely boy
[00:56.42] Oh, what a lonely boy
[01:00.84]
[01:06.08] In the summer of '53, his mother brought him a sister
[01:13.63] And she told him, "We must attend to her needs
[01:16.58] She's so much younger than you"
[01:21.55] Well, he ran down the hall and he cried
[01:25.23] Oh, how could his parents have lied
[01:29.47] When they said he was an only son
[01:33.37] He thought he was the only one
[01:37.65] Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
[01:43.26] Oh, what a lonely boy
[01:47.16] Oh, what a lonely boy
[01:51.36]
[02:19.35] Goodbye mama
[02:22.86] Goodbye you
[02:26.62] Goodbye papa, I'm pushing on through
[02:33.97]
[02:56.89] He left home on a winter day, 1969
[03:04.83] And he hoped to find all the love
[03:06.85] He had lost in that earlier time
[03:12.74] Well, his sister grew up and she married a man
[03:16.58] She gave her a son, ah yes, a lovely son
[03:20.63] They dressed him up warmly, they sent him to school
[03:24.42] It taught him how to fight to be nobody's fool
[03:28.24] Oh, oh, what a lonely boy
[03:34.00] Oh, what a lonely boy
[03:37.98] Oh, what a lonely boy
[03:42.97] Whoa, whoa, whoa
[03:45.62] Oh, what a lonely boy
[03:49.43] Oh, what a lonely boy
[03:53.22] Oh, what a lonely boy
[03:57.61]
[00:22.82] And with a slap of a hand, he had landed as an only son
