Tired of channel surfing   El Camino ain't working   it's 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      (Chorus)   What a good night to be lonely   Somebody's looking 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   Maybe she could dance with me   She said thought you'd never ask      (Chorus)      (Bridge)   She's following I'm leading   And it feels like I'm dreamin'      (Chorus)
