(George Jones) 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.
(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. (I know you do get tired) Oh, I`m up in my years now Nights would be cold now If you hadn`t stuck it out with this blues man Oh, I`m up in my years now Nights would be cold now If you hadn`t hung around with this blues man.
