| Every night I sit home alone |
| Sittin' by my radio |
| I’m just hopin' that something good will come on |
| But it never does |
| Hours away back in the street |
| Sally’s out with some man she’s met |
| She is just hopin' that somethin' good will come along |
| But it never does |
| I’m still hopin' |
| That someone could tell me |
| I sit here prayin' that somebody knows |
| I keep on wishin' that some could tell me |
| Exactly what I’m gonna do |
| So late at night |
| I make up games |
| I try to make the silence play |
| What harm could it do |
| Sometimes I try and call you |
| I seen 'em come I seen 'em go |
| Some are faster now some not so |
| You know Sally she ain’t a bit of fun anymore |
| I’m still hopin' |
| Hopi' someone could tell me |
| I sit here prayin' that somebody knows |
| I keep on wishin' that someone could tell me |
| Exactly what I’m going though |
| So every night I’m home alone |
| Just sittin' by my radio |
| Just hopin' that somethin' good will come along |
| But it never does |
| I’m still hopin' that someone could tell me |
| I sit here prayin' that somebody knows |
| I keep on wishin' that someone could tell me |
| Exactly what I’m doin' here |
