You Ought To Be With Me When I'm Alone

(Album: The Real Deal - 2005)

You ought to be with me when I'm alone
The only thing shaking is me when she's gone
I've been the one in the middle of lonely too long
You ought to be with me when I'm alone

My friends say she's crazy and dragging me down
But they oughta see me when she ain't around
I'm ringing my hands by an un-ringing phone
And turning the light off while she's turning on

You ought to be with me when I'm alone
The only thing shaking is me when she's gone
I've been the one in the middle of lonely too long
You ought to be with me when I'm alone

She won't come to my place, I must go to hers
And be dazzled by diamonds and waved through her furs
She got two well-bred dogs, but to me they're just curs
But I'm right down there with 'em 'cause I'm one of hers
