lyrics

Alright
Alone
Alone and so
Alone and so
Shooby doobie doobie doobie doo wah
Come on come on come on come on
Shooby doobie doobie doobie doo wah
Doin' what you wanna do 'cause you're
Alone
And so

Alone
And so
I didn't have nowhere to go
So hopped
In my car
And I thought I'd drive very far
But I stopped into a shop for 3 shots see
There was a girl working there and she looked at me
She said
"Ice?"
Well I don't know
I like it hot
I like it cold
I don't know
I'm alone
And so

Alright

Alone and so
I said
"How is business?"
She said "slow"
"Why don't you close the shop
And come with me?"
She said "Where?"
I just said "We'll see
I got a quarter tank and some money for some food"
"That ain't half bad
In fact it sounds
Very good!"

Shooby doobie doobie doobie doo wah

But let's go!
You're not alone anymore
You're not alone and so
