Lord, knows he always meant to love that woman
He promised furs and big blue diamond rings
Somehow it must have slipped his mind completely
You know he's busy doin' other things

But the girl don't ever get lonely
When her man is gone
The girl don't ever get lonely
'Cause the girl ain't never alone

Well, you'd think that she'd be a howlin' like a wild cat
'Cause he don't pay no attention to her needs
But she don't show no signs of being hungry
'Cause home is not the only place she feeds

'Cause the girl don't ever get lonely
When her man is gone
The girl don't ever get lonely
'Cause the girl ain't never alone

Oh, if you don't find the time to love your woman
And she's still got a smile upon her face
Maybe she don't spend no empty moments
'Cause she don't like to see love go to waste

No, the girl don't ever get lonely
When her man is gone
The girl don't ever get lonely
'Cause the girl ain't never alone

The girl don't ever get lonely
When her man is gone
The girl don't ever get lonely
'Cause the girl ain't never alone...
