Good and Lonesome

I'll be good while you're gone

I'll be lonesome while you're gone

I'll be good and lonesome

While you're gone

Sure as stars are in the sky

From the day we said goodbye

I'll be mighty lonesome

While you're gone

Every night, I'll pound the pillow

Feeling weepy as a willow

When my room cold and still, oh

How I yearn for your return

But I'll be good while you're gone

I'll be lonesome while you're gone

I'll be good and lonesome and blue

So before you go away

Won't you let me hear you say

You'll be good and lonesome, too

I'll be good while you're gone

(I'll be, oh, so good)

I'll be lonesome while you're gone

(I'll be lonesome too)

I'll be good and lonesome

While you're gone

Sure as stars are in the sky

(Stars are in the sky)

From the day we said goodbye

(When we said goodbye)

I'll be mighty lonesome

When you're gone

Every night, I'll pound the pillow

Feeling weepy as a willow

When my room is cold and still, oh

How I yearn for your return

But I'll be good while you're gone

(I'll be, oh, so good)

I'll be lonesome while you're gone

(I'll be lonesome too)

I'll be good and lonesome and blue

So before you go away

(When you go away)

Won't you let me hear you say

(Let me hear you say)

You'll be good and lonesome

I do mean lonesome

Good and lonesome, too
