"Loneliest Girl in the Crowd" Lyrics

(Tom T. Hall)

She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd
How can she look so sad when the music is playing so loud
Maybe she's waitin' on someone who'll make her feel proud
She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd.

I took a chance and I asked her to dance but she put me down
While I was a lookin' for a big ole smile I found a big ole frown
So loving looking so calm and she's so well endowed
She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd.

--- Instrumental ---

Somebody hurt her I don't understand it's so wrong
Why is she here she's mixing her tears with my happy song
She looks like an angel who just came down out of the clouds
But she's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd.

I took a chance and I asked her to dance but she put me down
While I was a lookin' for a big ole smile I found a big ole frown
So loving looking so calm and she's so well endowed
She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd.

She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd
How can she look so sad when the music is playing so loud
Maybe she's waitin' on someone who'll make her feel proud
She's got to be the loneliest girl in the crowd...
