 all alone
 
 for penny
 
 
 it's 4:30 sunday morning in detroit
 & the famous coachman
 has just made his change
 from the blues to music
 
 with a message, but i m still
 stuck here all alone
 in my room, chest deep
 in the blues
 
 you re breaking my heart,
 the way you leave me
 waiting up for you all night
 & not even call me, i know you
 
 got to be trying
 to discourage my suit
 & dampen my ardor, so i m mad
 as a wet hen, & feel so bad
 
 just like a ballgame
 on a rainy day, all alone
 in my little bitty room
 going out of my mind,
 
 daffy as a motherfucking duck
 to be so deep in love with you
 c mon baby, please send me
 some kind of message in the night,
 
 take these blues offa me
 & let me make the change
 back to you, i can t stand to be alone
 without you one more day
