They were playing
|
that old country waltz
|
In this empty bar
|
echoin' off the wall.
|
When I first got the bad news
|
that you set me free,
|
The band played the
|
old country waltz to me.
|
|
Well, I loved,
|
and I lost, and I cried
|
The day that
|
the two of us died.
|
Ain't got no excuses,
|
I just want to ride
|
While the band plays the
|
old country waltz.
|
|
Out the window the moon shines
|
On the roofs of the cars
|
While I knock down
|
tequila and salt
|
And the band plays the
|
old country waltz.
|
|
And we're playin' it,
|
that old country waltz
|
In this empty bar
|
echoin' off the wall.
|
Ain't got no excuses,
|
we just want to play
|
That good old country waltz.
|
|
I ain't got no excuses,
|
I just want to play
|
That good old country waltz.
|
That good old country waltz.
