Lyrics We Are The Lonely - John Prine

Down the hall, upstairs from me
There′s a girl I swear I never seen
I hear the ringing of her phone
She must live up there all alone

She hangs her clothes out on the line
They're hanging there right next to mine
And if the wind should blow just right
She could be in my arms tonight

We are the lonely all together
All together we′re all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together we're all alone

The cashier at the 'Pump And Pay′
Knows everything′s gonna be okay
The all night, all right rent a cop
Is across the street at the donut shop
([Incomprehensible], donut shop)

The waitress waits with whiskey sour
At the single-mingle happy hour
The one man band begins to sing
Accompanied by a drum machine

We are the lonely all together
All together we're all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together we′re all alone

White divorced swinging male
Seeks company to no avail
Worthless, ruthless, toothless man
Wants wealthy woman with a plan

SWF with a PhD
Seeks TLC at the AT&T
GWM, nice and trim
Seeks S E X at the G Y M

Ugly man treats girls like dirt
Wants buttons sewn upon his shirt
DUI at the B A R
Seeks M A N with C A R

We are the lonely all together
All together we're all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together we′re all alone

We are the lonely
(We are the lonely)
All together
(All together)

All together
(All together)
We're all alone
(We′re all alone)

We are the lonely
(We are the lonely)
All together
(All together)

All together
(All together)
We're all alone
(We're all alone)

Toothy gal with breasts so large
Takes Visa Amex Master Charge
Dial 1-900 girls for fun
You lonely little hot dog bun

Straight but curious, 33
[Incomprehensible]
