"Lonely People" is a song written by the husband-and-wife team of Dan and Catherine Peek and performed by America. The track was the second release from America's 1974 album Holiday. "Lonely People" reached number five on the Billboard Hot 100 and was America's second number one on the Easy Listening chart, where it stayed for one week in February 1975.[1] Dan Peek re-recorded the song for his 1986 solo album Electro Voice and changed some of the lyrics to reflect his Christian faith, for example the lines "And ride that highway in the sky" and "You never know until you try" became "And give your heart to Jesus Christ."
