I'm writing a song all about you
A true song as real as my tears But you've no need to fear it 'Cause no one will hear it 'Cause sad songs and waltzes Aren't selling this year I'll tell all about how you cheated I'd like to the whole world to hear I'd like to get even with you 'Cause you're leavin' And songs and waltzes Aren't selling this year It's a good thing that I'm not a star You don't know how lucky you are Though my record may say it No one will play it 'Cause sad songs and waltzes Aren't selling this year Well it's a good thing that I'm not a star You don't know how lucky you are Though my record may say it No one will play it 'Cause sad songs and waltzes Aren't selling this year |

The lights go out each evening at eleven
And up and down our block there's not a sound I close my eyes and search for peaceful slumber And just then the local memory comes around Piles of blues against the door to make sure sleep will come no more He's the hardest working memory in this town Turns out happiness again and then lets loneliness back in And each night the local memory comes around Each day I say tonight I may escape him I pretend I'm happy and never even a frown But at night I close my eyes and pray sleep finds me But again the local memory comes around Rids the house of all good news then sets out my crying shoes What a faithful memory never lets me down We're both up till light of day chasing happiness away And each night the local memory comes around And each night the local memory comes around |

There's no hurry cause My life ain't mine anymore I lived too fast Now it's too late to worry And I'm too blue to cry anymore I once was a fool for the women Now I'm just a fool nothing more So slow down slow down old world There's no hurry cause My life ain't mine anymore I once had a way with the women Till one got away with my heart So slow down slow down old world There's no hurry cause My life ain't mine anymore 'Cause my life ain't mine anymore |

We were headed home in Austin
Caught pneumonia on the road Taking it home to Connie and the kids A wheel ran off and jumped a railroad Then ran through a grocery store If you want to buy a bus I'm taking bids And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag He said traveling on the road is such a drag If we can make it home by Friday we can brag And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag Well I just got back from New York City Kris and Rita done it all Raw perfection there for all the world to see Lord I heard an angel singing In the Philharmonic Hall Rita Coolidge Rita Coolidge cleft for me And the devil shivered... And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag |

Pay no mind to her
She only wants to play But she's not for you She's not for you And I'm the only one Who would let her act this way But she's not for you She's not for you So she told you she found Heaven in your eyes Well I think it only fair To warn you that Sometimes she lies But it's your heart I can't tell you What to do But she's not for you She's not for you She just looks for Greener pastures now and then And when she grows tired She knows Old Faithful Will just take her back again So just leave her here I'm used to feeling blue She's not for you She's not for you She's not for you She's not for you |

Tonight in the bar alone I'm sitting
Apart from the laughter and the cheer Scenes from the past rise before me Watchin' the bubbles in my beer (Chorus:) Visions of someone who loved me Brings a lone silent tear to my eye And I know that my life's been a failure Watchin' the bubbles in my beer I'm seeing the road that I travel A road filled with heartaches and tears And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted Watchin' the bubbles in my beer (Repeat chorus) (As Performed by Ray Price on "San Antonio Rose - A Tribute To The Great Bob Wills) Tonight in a bar room I'm sitting Apart from the laughter and the cheer The scenes of my life pass before me While watchin' the bubbles in my beer CHORUS: A vision of someone who loved me Brings a lone, silent tear to my eye I know that my life's been a failure Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer I'm seein' the road that I travel A road paved with heartaches and tears I'm seein' the past that I've wasted While watchin' the bubbles in my beer CHORUS: I think of the heart that I've broken And the golden chances that have passed me by The dreams I once made now are over As empty as the bubbles in my beer |

Holdin' hands and kissin' everybody I'm glad to say that you can't blow my mind You look like the devil when you're cryin' I'm so glad that you feel so strong that way You got a great big smile for everybody I'm so glad I've met you yesterday [ steel ] You look like the devil in the morning...

the coffee's too strong so forget it The toast is burning well let it there's just so much to do since you've gone Too much to do all alone My tie's lost I can't find the sweater there's the doorbell I hope that's your letter My head aches I hope I feel better there's just so much to do since you've gone Too much to do all alone So much to do since you've gone too much to do all alone And time time rolls on like a river and oh there's just so much to do And I just can't do without you So much to do since you've gone too much to do all alone And time time rolls on like a river and oh there's just so much to do And I just can't do without you |

Well I've been a lot of places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs and I've made some bad rhyme I've acted out my love in stages with ten thousand people watchin' Now we're alone and I am singin' my song for you And I know your image of me is what I hope to be I've treated you unkindly but darling can't you see No one more important to me darling can't you please see through me Cause now we're alone and I am singing my song for you Well you taught me precious secrets of a truth with holding nothin' You came out in front but I was hiding Now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding And I love you in a place where there's no space or time I love you for my life you are a friend of mine And when my life is over remember when we were together We were alone and I was singing my song for you And we were alone and I was singing my song for you |

I'm so ashamed of my eyes cause they still cry for you
After they both watched my hand wave goodbye to you I've told them time and time again that this will never do And I've told them how you always laughed at teardrops I'm so ashamed of my arms for missing you Last night I woke up just in time to see them reach for you And now my heart confesses it's still wants you too I'm so ashamed of them all for loving you |

I've been trying so hard to forget you
But this chore of forgetting I find Has me burning both ends of the candle And fighting a battle with time What I'd give just to sleep for a moment But it's a luxury that I can't afford For I know that I just dream about you And my tears would start falling once more So I'm burning both ends of the candle I just hope that it lasts through the night For each moment the candle is burning Brings closer the ending of life So I'm burning both ends of the candle I just hope that it lasts through the night For each moment the candle is burning It brings closer the ending of life |

It's a bloody Mary morning,
Baby left me without warning Sometime in the night So I'm flyin' down to Houston Forgetting her's the nature of my flight As we taxi toward the runway With the smog and haze Reminding me of how I feel Just a country boy who's learnin' That the pitfalls of the city Are extremely real All the night life and the parties And temptation and deceit The order of the day Well it's a bloody Mary mornin' 'Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... Our golden jet is airborne And flight Fifty cuts a path Across the mornin' sky And a voice comes on the speaker Reassuring us flight Fifty Is the way to fly And a hostess takes our order Coffee tea or something stronger To start off the day Well it's a bloody Mary morning Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... |

It's been rough and rocky travelin',
But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground. After takin' several readings, I'm surprised to find my mind`s still fairly sound. I guess Nashville was the roughest, But I know I said the same about them all. We received our education In the cities of the nation, me and Paul. Almost busted in Laredo, But for reasons that I'd rather not disclose, But if you're stayin' in a motel there and leave, Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes. And at the airport in Milwaukee, They refused to let us board the plane at all, They said we looked suspicious, But I believe they like to pick on me and Paul. I guess Nashville was the roughest, But I know I said the same about them all. We received our education In the cities of the nation, me and Paul. |

Turn out the lights
The party's over They say that All good things must end Call it tonight The party's over And tomorrow starts The same old thing again But the crazy crazy party Never seen so many people Laughing dancing Look at you you're having fun But look at me I'm almost cryin' That don't keep her love from dyin' Misery cause for me the party's over Turn out the lights... Once I had a love undyin' I didn't keep it but I tried Life for me was just one party And then another I broke her heart so many times I had to have my parting wife I had to have my party Why broke her heart so many times But one day she said Sweetheart the party's over Turn out the lights... |

A long time forgotten
are dreams that just felt by the way. And the good life he promised ain't what she's living to day. But she never complains of the bad times or bad things he's done Lord. She's just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come. She's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man. She loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand. Through teardrops and laughter they'll pass though his world hand in hand. A good hearted woman lovin' her good timin' man. He likes the night life the brightlights and good timin' friends. when the party's all over she welcome him back home again. Lord knows she don't understand him but she does the best that she can. 'Cause she's a good hearted woman she loves her good timin' man. She's a good hearted woman ... |

Shotgun Willie sits around in his underwear
Bitin' a bullet, pullin' out all of his hair Shotgun Willie has got all of his family there You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say You can't play music if you don't know nothin' to play (Repeat 1st verse) Well, John T. (Fours)? was workin' with the Klu Klux Klan The six foot five John T was a hell of a man Made a lot of money sellin' sheets on the family plan (Repeat 1st verse) |

You look like the devil in the morning you've been out a working through the night
Holdin' hands and kissin' everybody I'm glad to say that you can't blow my mind You look like the devil when you're cryin' I'm so glad that you feel so strong that way You got a great big smile for everybody I'm so glad I've met you yesterday [ steel ] You look like the devil in the morning... [ guitar ] You look like the devil when you're cryin'... I'm so glad I've met you yesterday |

It's a bloody Mary morning,
Baby left me without warning Sometime in the night So I'm flyin' down to Houston Forgetting her's the nature of my flight As we taxi toward the runway With the smog and haze Reminding me of how I feel Just a country boy who's learnin' That the pitfalls of the city Are extremely real All the night life and the parties And temptation and deceit The order of the day Well it's a bloody Mary mornin' 'Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... Our golden jet is airborne And flight Fifty cuts a path Across the mornin' sky And a voice comes on the speaker Reassuring us flight Fifty Is the way to fly And a hostess takes our order Coffee tea or something stronger To start off the day Well it's a bloody Mary morning Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... |
