I hit the town on March 17
|
And seen Paddy's Day but I ain't wearing green
|
Love is dead and it ain't coming back
|
Tonight I'm wearing black.
|
|
I'm hanging close to all of my friends
|
I tell them I'm happy, my heart's on the mend
|
I'm moving on and I ain't looking back
|
Tonight I'm wearing black
|
|
Whoa let's raise the glass
|
And toast one to Johnny Cash
|
Whoa, choose to forget her
|
And everything's better in black.
|
|
I'm hiding now in the darkest of pubs
|
Surviving on shadows and cold icy mugs
|
So come on bartender don't hold nothing back
|
Tonight I'm wearing black.
|
|
Whoa let's raise the glass
|
And toast one to Johnny Cash
|
Whoa, choose to forget her
|
And everything's better in black.
|
|
She comes here lookin', well that's just too bad
|
I'll still be hiding, I'm way in the back
|
At a dark cornered table, but she won't know that
|
'cause tonight I'm wearing black.
|
|
Whoa let's raise the glass
|
And toast one to Johnny Cash
|
Whoa, choose to forget her
|
And everything's better in black.
|
|
Oh, everything's better and black.
|
Tonight I'm wearing black.
