The Blues Man |
| I’m just a singer |
| A natural-born guitar ringer |
| Kind of a clinger |
| To sad old songs |
| I’m not a walk-behinder |
| I’m a new note finder |
| But my name’s a reminder |
| Of a blues man that’s already gone. |
| So I started drinking |
| Took some things that messed up my thinking |
| I was sure sinking, when she came along |
| I was alone in the spot light |
| Not too much left inside |
| She changed all that one night |
| When she sang me this song. |
| (Dolly Parton) |
| Hey baby, I love you |
| Hey baby, I need you |
| Hey baby, you don’t have to prove to me You’re some kind of macho man |
| You’ve wasted so much of your life |
| Running through the dark nights |
| Let me shine a little love light down on you blues man. |
| --- Instrumental --- |
| (George Jones) |
| I got so sick from speedin' |
| All the stuff they said I was needin' |
| If I was to keep pleasin' |
| All of my fans |
| I got cuffed on dirt roads |
| I got sued over no-shows |
| She came and took all that old load |
| Down off this blues man. |
| That’s right. |
| (Both) |
| Hey baby, I love you too |
| Hey baby, I need you too |
| Hey baby, I do get tired of this travelin' band. |
| (Dolly) |
| (I know you do get tired) |
| (Both) |
| Oh, I’m up in my years now |
| Nights would be cold now |
| If you hadn’t stuck it out with this blues man |
| (George) |
| Oh, I’m up in my years now |
| (Both) |
| Nights would be cold now |
| If you hadn’t hung around with this blues man. |
