Mark Chesnutt Good Night to Be Lonely lyrics

Tired of channel surfin'
El Camino ain't workin'
Monday night and I'm hurtin' for company
Bummed a ride to the hideaway
I'm the only guy in the place
Bored silly wasn't gonna stay
Then she walked in, Heaven sent
And it occurs to me

What a good night to be lonely
Somebody's lookin' out for me
Oh what an opportunity
Right out of the blue
Is it luck or a twist of fate?
Doesn't really matter either way
It's a good night, a good night to be lonely

Dollars worth of quarters
Played some songs and ordered
One for me and one for her as I tipped my hat
Said that she felt restless
Just moved here from Texas
That's when I suggested
That maybe she could dance with me

She said thought you'd never ask

What a good night to be lonely
Somebody's lookin' out for me
Oh what an opportunity
Right out of the blue
Is it luck or a twist of fate?
Doesn't really matter either way
It's a good night, a good night to be lonely

She's followin' I'm leadin'
It feels like I'm dreamin'

What a good night to be lonely
Somebody's lookin' out for me
Oh what an opportunity
Right out of the blue
Is it luck or a twist of fate?
Doesn't really matter either way
It's a good night, a real good night
It's a good night, a good night to be lonely
