lyrics

I learned to have a FIGHTIN’ SIDE, and GIN just don’t mix with MISERY
And I’VE GOT A DARLIN’ FOR A WIFE, thanks to MY FAVORITE MEMORY
I was never a LONESOME FUGITIVE, but I sure did relate to MAMA TRIED
And I’D TRADE ALL MY TOMORROWS, for one more taste of YESTERDAY’S WINE

How many of us lived out, TODAY I STARTED LOVING YOU AGAIN
IT’S FUNNY WHAT A FOOL WILL DO, WHEN TRUE LOVE STEPS IN
And I love THE SOUND OF LAUGHTER, when the MAN IN BLACK sings A BOY NAMED SUE
But it’s CRYIN’ TIME when I LET MY MIND WONDER, WHOSE GONNA FILL THEIR SHOES

Are the FOOTLIGHTS finally kicked out, where the HONKY TONK HEROES once stood
ARE THE GOOD TIMES REALLY OVER FOR GOOD, is it really GOODBYE TIME
As long as I’ve got a six string in my hands, the LEGENDS NEVER DIE

I shed a TEAR IN MY BEER cause PANCHO ‘s all alone and LEFTY’s gone
A few last LIVING LEGENDS, WE’RE GONNA TRY TO GET ALONG
THE TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGIN’, there ain’t NO NEED TO WORRY bout a thing,
Us GOOD OLE BOYS we still BELIEVE IN LOVE, and BOB WILLS IS STILL THE KING

Are the FOOTLIGHTS finally kicked out, where the HONKY TONK HEROES once stood
ARE THE GOOD TIMES REALLY OVER FOR GOOD, is it really GOODBYE TIME
As long as I’ve got a six string in my hands, the LEGENDS NEVER DIE
As long as I’ve got a six string in my hands, the LEGENDS NEVER DIE
