Verse 1

 well I'll bet my Maria's got an elbow full of lonely

 now here's a little prayer so that she might get some sleep

 don't let her face get skinned by the sun today

 don't let it in when it comes knocking at your door

Chorus

 loneliness

 loneliness

 loneliness

 oh oh

Verse 2

sometimes you feel you've got the emptiest arms in the whole world

try to make sense but it always comes out absurd

sleeping horses keep eating up your flowers

don't let it in when it comes kicking at your door

Chorus

 loneliness

 loneliness

 loneliness

 oh oh

 came kicking at my door

Verse 3

 she said I've really come to hate my body

 and all the things that it requires in this world

 I bet you're out there getting drunk with all your friends

 and it'll get you in the bathroom of a Texaco

Chorus
