Play me a sad song
Tell me your woman's gone
You know how misery loves company
Sing it just one more time
Before I lose my mind
Tell me how misery loves company
Loneliness surrounds me
Emptiness you found me
I don't think I can go on
Sing me a drinking song
Tell me you done her wrong
You know how misery loves company
I'll put in my last dime
To hear it one more time
Willie sing Misery Loves Company
Loneliness surrounds me
Emptiness you found me
I don't think I can go on
I don't think I can go on
I don't think I can go on
