Only lonely Tony whispers
In my heart his words now lie
He rolls along the far-flung vistas
Seen in the mirror of her eyes
Oh you'll want him to see
Oh and you'll want him to be
Your one and only never lonely man
But he's always running from midnight creatures
A head full of souls even a preacher can't teach us
For us he walks alone as can be
Lonely Tony
Lonely Tony
Lonely Tony
Is lonely free
Oh my darlin' stay with me a while
You won't find him for mile on mile
His legs will now be longer than your car
His shoes will be screaming on his feet
And eyes dripping wet like a cow's full teet
Children running, hiding behind their pa
The path it'll bow 'neath the moss on his toes
The sun it'll set and the trees they will glow
A picture of an old memory
Now we sit and we wonder of our man out yonder
With ghouls in his stools that are too much to ponder
A life of broken solitary
Lonely Tony
Lonely Tony
Lonely Tony
Is lonely free
