I BOUGHT THIS RHINESTONE SUIT IN CALIFORNIA
|
THESE BOOTS CAME ALL THE WAY FROM MEXICO
|
THIS CADILLAC AIN'T NOTHING', SON
|
YOU OUGHT TO SEE THE GREYHOUND
|
I BOUGHT TO TAKE MY BAND FROM SHOW TO SHOW
|
SEEN MY FACE A THOUSAND TIMES ON TV
|
AND HEARD ME ON YOUR LOCAL RADIO
|
AND IN YOUR EYES I SEE THE ADMIRATION THERE FOR ME
|
BUT, SON, THERE'S SOMETHING THAT OUGHT TO KNOW
|
|
WELL, I'VE GOT TO TAKE A DRINK TO KEEP FROM SHAKEN'
|
MOTEL ROOMS AIN'T NOTHING LIKE A HOME
|
MONEY CAN'T MAKE LOVE GROW ANY STRONGER
|
WHEN YOU LEAVE YOUR WOMAN HOME ALONE
|
SHE CAN'T RAISE THE CHILDREN WITH NO DADDY
|
SHE CAN'T LOVE A MAN THAT'S ALWAYS GONE
|
IT TAKES A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN PRIDE
|
TO KEEP YOUR FEELINGS LOCKED INSIDE
|
WHILE YOU SING ANOTHER PRETTY COUNTRY SONG
|
|
I'VE SEEN YOUR FACE A THOUSAND TIMES ON TV
|
I'VE HEARD YOU ON MY LOCAL RADIO
|
|
IT'S TRUE I TOOK SOME PILLS TO STAY AWAKE, SON
|
AND THIS DIAMOND RING I WEAR IS JUST FOR SHOW
|
I'VE GOT A LITTLE CABIN IN THE COUNTRY
|
WHEN I'M NOT ON THE ROAD THAT'S WHERE I GO
|
TRY AND PUT MY FEELINGS DOWN ON PAPER
|
RIGHT OR WRONG THE SHOW HAS TO GO ON
|
I CAN CRY DEEP DOWN INSIDE AND KEEP ON SMILING'
|
WHILE I SING ANOTHER PRETTY COUNTRY SONG
|
|
BUT I'VE GOT TO TAKE A DRINK TO KEEP FROM SHAKEN'
|
