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
