| Three nights in old Arizona
|
| Gotta get me out to California
|
| Yeah, she’s waitin' there for me
|
| Feelin' wrong, but I’ll get right
|
| Let me hit that stage tonight
|
| Yeah, they’re waitin' there for me
|
| They’re all waitin' there for me
|
| But it’s hard to be that good timin' man
|
| While I’m drownin' my misery
|
| With this bottle in my hand
|
| But put on a smile and my old guitar
|
| And sing «Jean» yet again
|
| And I try to be that good timin' man
|
| All these people, they just don’t see
|
| What her and that bottle been doin' to me
|
| Seems every night I walk the floor
|
| I was drunk in Oklahoma City
|
| Well, the whiskey was strong
|
| And the girls were pretty
|
| Every night there’s more and more
|
| Seems every night there’s more and more
|
| But it’s hard to be that good timin' man
|
| While I’m drownin' my misery
|
| With this bottle in my hand
|
| But put on a smile and my old guitar
|
| And sing «Jean» yet again
|
| And I try to be that good timin' man
|
| And I try to be that good timin' man |
