Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely for me, baby?

It's my last train, y'all, Jacksonville
I gotta get on it, baby, you know I will now
Will you try? Just come on and try
To forget all the pain that I brought you

Go on and cry, go ahead and just cry, cry, baby
I know I'm the one who, who, who taught you, yeah

To be lonely, baby
I'm lonely and blue
Hey, I'm lonely, baby
And I'm lonely for you

Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely for me, baby?

It's your last buck to Jacksonville
Are you my sweet baby, are you still?
I'll tell my friend it's the end
That you'll never again desert me

That man is going laughing
I can just hear him laugh, honey
H would say that I was wrong to just hurt you
But he's lying, baby, and then I'm sorry too

Yeah, I'm lonely, baby
Yes, I'm lonely for you, yeah, that's strange

Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely, lonely for me, baby now?

It's a long ride to Jacksonville
But no one will ever know the way I feel
Will you be there, baby, will you just be there?
When I, when I, when I, when I get down from that train, girl?

Yes, I'm gonna be there
Said I'm gonna be there
You know I got to be there
'Cause I wanna see you there

Oh, I'm lonely, baby
Lonely and blue
Yeah, and I'm lonely, baby
I'm lonely for you

Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely for me, baby?
Are you lonely for me, baby?
Come on home to me, baby
