I'm with a Crowd But Oh So Alone


Words & Music:
Ernest Tubb/ Carl StoryI'm with a crowd but oh so alone
I still have the picture you sent me
And you signed it with love you recall
And the one of me that you wanted
Is now hanging face to the wall
At night I'm never alone
I'm afraid that I'll weaken and phone
And I'm afraid that you will be gone
I'm with a crowd but oh so alone Recorded:
1956/12/04, first released on
The Million Dollar QuartetReactions
I think Carl sings it because you can hear guitar, and no piano. I also think that it's Jerry Lee talking. Elvis just says "take it easy boy", so it's hardly a Elvis track.
