Ringo Starr – All By Myself lyrics

By Vini Poncia and Richard Starkey

I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW
AND WATCHED ALL THE PEOPLE GO BY.
I WONDER WHAT HAPPENS
AND WHO'S TAKING WHO FOR A RIDE.

(Don't you know that I'm bound?)
I'M BOUND TO PICK UP THE PIECES AND WATCH THEM LAND. (watch them land)
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE,
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I WORK OUT MY PROBLEMS,
I'M STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN.
I JUST STARTED SMILING,
I'M MAKING MYSELF SOME NEW FRIENDS.

(Don't you know I've got?)
I'VE GOT A BRAND NEW FEELING I JUST CAN'T HIDE. (just can't hide)
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to turn to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh -, ooh -, ooh -)

WAY BACK IN MY MEM'RY,
I CAN SEE WHERE I'VE WASTED MY TIME.
YOU CAME AND TOOK WHAT YOU WANTED
AND THEN TRIED TO TAKE WHAT WAS MINE.

(Well, don't you know I'm tired)
I'M TIRED OF FINDING MYSELF UP AGAINST THE WALL, IT'S SO TALL.
I'M STANDING ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to turn to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I AIN'T GOT NOBODY.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(I'm standing) ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (nobody)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I AIN'T GOT NOBODY.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(I'm standing) ALL BY MYSELF,
AIN'T GOT NOBODY ELSE, (to talk to)
ALL BY MYSELF,
I DON'T NEED NOBODY.

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

(I'm standing) ALL BY MYSELF.
