HEARTBREAK HOTEL
Original version
Since my baby left me
I found a new place to dwell
Down at the end of Lonely street at Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby
I get so lonely
I get so lonely I could die
Although it's always crowded
I still can find some room
Where those broken hearted lovers
Cry away their gloom, oh!
I get so lonely
I get so lonely
Get so lonely I could die
Bellhop's tears keep flowing
Desk clerk dressed in black
They been so long on lonely street
They ain't never comin' back
I get so lonely
I get so lonely
Get so lonely I could die
If your baby leaves you
And you have a tale to tell
Just take a walk
Down Lonely street to Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby
I get so lonely
I get so lonely I could die
