Sometimes I get lonesome, oh it's a natural thing
But I guess it don't help none when you're feeling all down
I wish I had someone, it's always the same old thing
I wish I had someone singing with me.
I went down to the river, now I'm out by the shore
Now I swim in deep waters, 'til I can't breathe no more
Rocks on the mountains, and the shells in the sea
In the radio fliers, no answers for me
I ain't got nobody, and it's always the same ole thing
I wish I had someone singing with me
Well I went down to the river, now I'm out by the shore
Now I swim in deep waters 'til I can't breathe no more
So if you're out walking and you see me out drowning
You can call up the sailors or you can stand there and watch
You can bring me your lifeboat, you can reach out your hands and see
I get by with someone singing with me
Well I get by with someone singing with me
You'll sing me a song that you already know
And I'll sing it to you if I know how it goes
And we'll walk through the evening no worries or woes and we'll dance on the night like the moon does, Dance on the night like the moon does
