[Verse 1]
Monday's shine, yes and Tuesday's rain
While the days that go by, baby, like a southbound train
Well, it's funny thinking you won't ever call my name

[Chorus]
Here comes lonely
Here come the blues

[Verse 2]
Well, the words, they won't come, babe, you know my tongue is cold
Well, there's nothing new, blue lady, that won't get old
Yes, the dealer's gone down and I just better fold

[Chorus]
Here comes lonely
Here comes the blues

[Verse 3]
You know the sun has run down, and oh, she's gone out to hide
Yes, and I'm out walking while midnight rides
Just me, the good time Charlies and the suicides

[Chorus]
Here comes lonely
Here come the blues
[Verse 4]
Well, Thursday's dry, yes, and Friday's just the same
Maybe come down blue Monday, I will grab the brakes again
'Cause no bottle of pills, baby, can kill this pain

[Chorus]
Here comes lonely
Here come the blues
Here comes lonely
Here come the blues
