I made the mistake of playing this on YT about a week ago and can't shake it.
I grew up in the late 60s and early 70s. Grand Funk Railroad was a band that was especially favored in my area, as they came to be out of Flint, Michigan. They were local boys emulating the power trio concept of Cream and others. The quintessential garage band, but they played their asses off and were huge hits.
Mark Farner wrote most of the tunes and he could play and sing some rock and roll.
Especially enjoyed the orchestration of this particular tune, sort of borrowing from the Moody Blues and their highly successful album "Days of Future Passed."

Loneliness cries deep from my soul
Keeps trying to tell me about the world growing so cold
Too many people trying to take from my earth
But we can't live without controlling our birth
Deep inside a voice cries out for you
It's not alone 'cause people, I been cryin' too
If we don't stop what we all see is wrong
I guarantee you mankind won't live long
There's a land, a glorious land
It's right here on earth
Understand what you can from the land
Your life is its worth
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
To face the problems that everyone's found
We must replace what we took out of the ground
Pray for your brother, let your soul find a way
Help one another, oh, please listen to what I say
There's a land, a glorious land
It's right here on earth
Understand what you can from the land
Your life is its worth
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh
Loneliness
Oh, I can't get away from loneliness
Yeah, loneliness
Loneliness
Yeah, lonely, lone, loneliness
I just can't get away from lonely, loneliness
Yeah, yeah
Loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
Can't get away from loneliness
