Irving Berlin,
All by Myself
(1921)
“ All by myself in the morning All by myself in the night; I sit alone in a cosy Morris chair, So unhappy there playing solitaire All by myself I get lonely Watching the clock on the shelf I'd like to rest my weary head on somebody's shoulder I hate to grow older all by myself. [Verse] My name and number are in the book, The one that hangs on a hook, In almost every drug store; Why don't someone bother to look, My central tells me all day long "Sorry the number is wrong." This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1928. ”
