John Cale - Heartbreak Hotel lyrics

Words & music by Mae B. Axton - Tommy Durden - Elvis Presley

Well, since my baby left me,

I found a new place to dwell.

It's down at the end of lonely street

at Heartbreak Hotel.

You make me so lonely baby,

I get so lonely,

I get so lonely I could die.

And although it's always crowded,

you still can find some room.

Where broken hearted lovers

do cry away their gloom.

You make me so lonely baby,

I get so lonely,

I get so lonely I could die.

Well, the Bell hop's tears keep flowin',

and the desk clerk's dressed in black.

Well they been so long on lonely street

They ain't ever gonna look back.

You make me so lonely baby,

I get so lonely,

I get so lonely I could die.

Hey now, if your baby leaves you,

and you got a tale to tell.

Just take a walk down lonely street

to Heartbreak Hotel.
