| Well he was sitting by me, at the beach front bar
|
| He seem pretty tore up so I bought him a beer and we lit up a couple Cuban
|
| cigars
|
| Well a couple beers in we was gettin' profound
|
| He said «A guy like me likes the simple things that I… I can wrap my head
|
| around»
|
| I didn’t know where he was going but I began to understand
|
| When he stood up on his stool like a fool and started holerin' at the band:
|
| «So play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin',
|
| lyin' and a-leavin'
|
| Something where somebody did somebody wrong, and play it all night long
|
| But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song
|
| Dont play me no love song.»
|
| He said «Wait a minute man, I know who you are
|
| Ain’t…ain't you that fella on the tv in a cowboy hat always playing guitar»
|
| I said «Yeah that’s me»
|
| I thought «Boy, there goes that»
|
| He didn’t want a cd or a picture of me autographed, no all he asked was
|
| Just play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin',
|
| lyin' and a-leavin'
|
| Something where somebody did somebody wrong, and play it all night long
|
| But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song
|
| Dont play me no love song
|
| No gonna last forever, smilin', dancin', laughin'
|
| Hey let me hear about how it really happened
|
| Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin',
|
| lyin' and a-leavin'
|
| Something where somebody did somebody wrong
|
| Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin',
|
| lyin' and a-leavin'
|
| Something where somebody did somebody wrong, Oh she done me wrong
|
| But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song |
