Neil Diamond - Lonely Lady #17 Lyrics
Lonely lady one, she run away.And number two, she do the same.Lady number three walk out on meLike number four.Whos keeping score?Lady five, oh how she lied.She made me pay some dues.Six and seven, eight, nine, ten,They really were bad news.Oh no, theyd only break my heart.Thats how it seems.And then I finally came uponA lady seventeen.Lonely lady number seventeen,She stayed a while.She had the style.Lonely lady number seventeen,She got to be with lonely me.Lonely, lonely lady number seventeen, yeah.Lonely lady!Ladies eleven, twelve and thirteen,They came and went.Baby, I still can hear them sayinIts time to repent.I turned around,And there she wasWith such a sweet surprise:A lovin face,Lovin smile,And love lights in her eyes.Lonely lady number seventeen,You stayed a while.You had the style.Lonely lady number seventeen,Come on and beWith lonely meOh no, when lady fourteen walked out,Thats when I screamed.No luck with lady fifteenOr sweet sixteen.But lonely lady number seventeen,You stayed a while.You had the style.Lonely lady number seventeen,Come on an beWith lonely me.Lonely, lonely ladyNumber seventeen, yeah!Lonely lady!She makes me feel so sociable
