"(Oh Baby Mine) I Get So Lonely" is a popular song. It was written by Pat Ballard and was published in 1953.

The biggest hit version was done by The Four Knights in 1954.

Anne Shelton with Ken Mackintosh and his orchestra recorded it in London on March 3, 1954. The song was released by EMI on the His Master's Voice label as catalog number B 10680.

Several other country and pop artists also recorded the song, including Johnnie & Jack, whose version was a #1 country hit in 1954, and The Statler Brothers, whose version was a #2 country hit in 1983.

The same year, Dutch singer/comedian Andre van Duin released it as De Heidezangers; in the accompanying video he portrayed a three-piece amateur-band of piano, guitar and bass. The latter musician famously turned "Oh baby mine" into the speech-impedimental "Ik ssspeel de basss" ("I play the bass").
