I Sat And Watched Two Lovers Say Hello
They Kissed And Walked Away From Lonely Me
They Didn't Want To Share The Love That's Being There
With Poor Lonely Mister Misery

I Walked Along The Beach Alone And Blue
I Turned To Gaze Across The Empty Sea
As Memories Drifted By I Had To Stop And Cry
For Poor Lonely Mister Misery

The Story Of My Life Is Not Worth Reading
For Lonely Is The Only Word You See
Three's A Crowd When Lovers Get Together
But I'm Alone With No One To Cry For Me

I Guess I'll Move Along Where No One Knows
The Name That Everyone's Been Calling Me
The Name I'll Try To Lose Together With My Blues
Of Poor Lonely Mister Misery

The Name I'll Try To Lose Together With My Blues
Of Poor Lonely Mister Misery
I'm Poor Lonely Mister Misery
Call Me Poor Lonely Mister Misery
Just Poor Lonely Mister Misery

We're Gonna Get Close (Sha - La - La - La, Sha - La - La - La)
As Close As Two People Can Get (Sha - La - La - La - La - La - La - La)

I Know That Once I Left And Made You Cry It's True
But Darling Since We've Been Apart I've Done Some Crying Too
So I Promise You This Time (This Time) My Love Is Forever (Ever)
And We'll Remember Our Year - The Year That Brought Us Together

Dick Bottoff - Guitar

I Used To Be The Loneliest Guy In Town - Couldn't Find A Girl
Till One Day I Took My Troubles Down To Madam Ruth
You Know That Gypsy With A Gold-Capped Tooth
She's Got A Pad Down On Thirty-Fourth And Five
Selling Little Bottles Of Love Potion Number Nine

I Told Her That I Was A Flop With Chicks
It's Been That Way Since Nineteen Fifty Six
She Jumped Down, Turned Around And Made A Magic Sign
And Handed Me A Bottle Of Love Potion Number Nine

She Jumped Down, Turned Around And Gave Me A Wink
She Said, "I'm Gonna Mix It Up Right Here In The Sink"
It Smelled Like Turpentine And Looked Like India Ink
I Held My Nose And Closed My Eyes - I Took A Drink

I Didn't Know If It Was Day Or Night
I Started Kissing Everything In Sight
But When I Kissed A Cop Down On Thirty-Fourth And Five
It Broke My Little Bottle Of Love Potion Number Nine

"Here You Are Son, Don't Be Afraid
Just Drink This - Drink It All Now"

So I Closed My Eyes, I Held My Nose - I Took A Drink

I Didn't Know If It Was Day Or Night
I Started Kissing Everything In Sight
But When I Kissed A Cop On Thirty-Fourth And Five
It Broke My Little Bottle Of Love Potion Number Nine
Love Potion Number Nine

Deep Down Inside You Know That You'll Come Back To Me
But You Had To Go, Yes You Had To Know
But I'm Waiting, Walking Alone

Just Like A Ship That Passed Into The Lonely Night

And The Day May Come When You See Her Go
Then What Will You Do When She Sets You Free?
Just The Way That You Said Goodbye To Me

When You Meet A Girl That You Like A Lot
And You Fall In Love But She Loves You Not
If A Flame Should Start As You Hold Her Near
Better Keep You Heart Out Of Danger Dear

For The Way Of Love Is A Way Alone
And The Day May Come, Oh When You See Her Go
Then What Will You Do, Oh When She Sets You Free?
Just The Way That You Said Goodbye To Me
