Loner Songtext
Some people seem to know somebody everywhere they go
They got aquaintences in Alaska, amigoes in Mexico
They send out invitations and throw parties in their homes
And when they're not with company, then they're talkin on the phone
But me, I'm a loner
I travel in a pack of one
I'm a loner
I'm a fugitive on the run
Some people take other people with them even when they drive
The SUV feels empty without that family of five
They congregate in kitchens, or in cool cafes downtown
Telling stories to each other 'bout their friends who aren't around
But me, I'm a loner
I'm the only body's business I know
I'm a loner
My life is a one man show
Cause I like my peace and quiet, I like to hear myself think
Can't do that when there's always someone talkin at me
It's not that I don't like folks, some of them seem okay
It's just that whoever made me, made me this way
I'm a loner
People always joining clubs and hanging out in bars
Gotta know where the action is, where the other people are
There's groups that meet to argue over how to get along
Groups for finding Mr. Right, groups for dumping Mr. Wrong
But me, I'm a loner
I'm on the outside lookin in
I'm a loner
Forgive me, Lord, if itOs a sin
But you made me a loner
A howlin wolf
I'm a loner
Why, why, why why did you make me
Such a loner
They got aquaintences in Alaska, amigoes in Mexico
They send out invitations and throw parties in their homes
And when they're not with company, then they're talkin on the phone
But me, I'm a loner
I travel in a pack of one
I'm a loner
I'm a fugitive on the run
Some people take other people with them even when they drive
The SUV feels empty without that family of five
They congregate in kitchens, or in cool cafes downtown
Telling stories to each other 'bout their friends who aren't around
But me, I'm a loner
I'm the only body's business I know
I'm a loner
My life is a one man show
Cause I like my peace and quiet, I like to hear myself think
Can't do that when there's always someone talkin at me
It's not that I don't like folks, some of them seem okay
It's just that whoever made me, made me this way
I'm a loner
People always joining clubs and hanging out in bars
Gotta know where the action is, where the other people are

Groups for finding Mr. Right, groups for dumping Mr. Wrong
But me, I'm a loner

I'm a loner
Forgive me, Lord, if itOs a sin
But you made me a loner
A howlin wolf
I'm a loner
Why, why, why why did you make me
Such a loner
