Lonely Room

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Lonely Room" is a tune from Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma!, sung not too long after "Pore Jud is Daid".

"Lonely Room" is Jud Fry's declaration that he will get out of his smokehouse and get Laurey Williams to be his own. He states how tired he is of the dirtiness of his smokehouse, and how he longs for a girl of his own.

Sung by Howard Da Silva in the original Broadway production, "Lonely Room" was omitted from the 1955 film adaptation.
