[Lyrics]
Well, since my baby left me, I found a new place to dwell.
It’s down at the end of lonely street At heartbreak hotel.
I've been so lonely baby, Well, I'm so lonely,
I"m so lonely, I could die.
And although it's always crowded, You still can find some room.
For broken hearted lovers To cry away their gloom.
They've been so lonely baby, They'll be so lonely,
They'll be so lonely they could die.
Now, the bell hop's tears keep flowin', And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well they been so long on lonely street They never ever gonna look back.
And they're so lonely baby, Well they'll be so lonely,
Well they're so lonely they could die.
Well, if your baby leaves you, And you got a tale to tell.
Well, just take a walk down lonely street To heartbreak hotel.
Where you'll be, You'll be so lonely, where you'll be lonely
You'll be so lonely you could die.
