Lonely Street Lyrics

Words and music by carl belew, kenny sowder, and w.s. stevenson

(peak billboard position # 5 in 1959)

Where's this place called "lonely stree-ee-ee-eet? "

I'm looking for that lonely street
I've got a sad, sad tale to tell
I need a place to go and weep
Where's this place called "lonely stree-ee-ee-eet? "

A place where there's just loneliness
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "lonely stree-ee-ee-eet? "

Perhaps upon that lonely street
There's someone such as i
Who came to bury broken dreams
And watch an old love di-ie

If I could find that lonely street
Where dim lights bring forgetfulness
Where broken dreams and mem'ries meet
Where's this place called "lonely stree-ee-ee-eet? "

Where's this place called "lonely stree-ee-ee-eet? "
