Play Me a Sad Song - Paul Simon

Saturday night and I’m all alone

Don’t have a date, I’m just sittin' home

The radio’s playin' the tap tunes tonight

Play me a sad song (oh yes)

Please mister deejay (yes)

Play me a sad song tonight (ooh-ooh)

Don’t you think I wanna go where other kids go

Don’t you know I wanna do what other kids do

I’ve got nobody to hold me tight (ooh yes)

Play me a sad song (oh yes)

Please mister deejay (yes)

Play me a sad song tonight

Don’t wanna hear a lullaby

I can’t sleep, I just sit and cry

Play me a sad song, a song of love

'Cause that’s all that I’m thinking of

Sittin' here cryin' won’t get me the girl

I bet I’m the loneliest boy in the world

Oh what’s the use, guess I’ll turn off the light (ooh yes)

Play me a sad song (oh yes)

Please mister deejay (yes)

Play me a sad song (oh yes)

I feel so lonely (yes)

Please mister deejay (oh yes)

Play me a sad song (yes)
