"Lonely In Person" lyrics

"Lonely In Person"
(originally by Buddy Meredith)

I hear them play my records on the radio
They write my name up in lights
My picture in the paper smiling back at me
But I'm lonely in person tonight
I'm lonely in person tonight

Town after town, people come out to see
The man who sings the songs of love and life
I laugh and sing and they think I could never be
This lonely in person tonight
I'm lonely in person tonight

The jukebox changes colors as the guitar starts to ring
Happy people laugh and dance to the songs I sing
But wax and needles cannot make a wrong love turn out right
I'm lonely in person tonight
I'm lonely in person tonight

The jukebox changes colors as the guitar starts to ring
Happy people laugh and dance to the songs I sing
But wax and needles cannot make a wrong love turn out right
And I'm lonely in person tonight
Yes, I'm lonely in person tonight
