All by myself in the mornin' All by myself in the night I sit alone with a table and a chair So unhappy there Playin' solitaire. All by myself I get lonely Watchin' the clock on the shelf I'd love to rest my weary head On somebody's shoulder I hate to grow older All by myself. All by myself in the mornin' All by myself in the night I sit alone with a table and a chair So unhappy there Playin' solitaire. 'Cause I'm all by myself and I get lonely Watchin' the clock on the shelf I'd love to rest my weary head On somebody's shoulder I hate to grow older All by myself. All by myself in the mornin' All by myself in the night I sit alone with a table and a chair So unhappy there Playin' solitaire. And I'm all by myself so I get lonely Just watchin' the clock on the shelf I'd love to rest my weary head On somebody's shoulder I hate to grow older All by myself
