She said, "I've seen you here before."
I said, "I've been here a time or two."
She said, "Hello my name is Bobby Jo
Meet my twin sister Betty Lou
And we're both feeling kinda wild tonight
And your the only cowboy in this place
And if you're up for a rodeo
I'll put a big Texas smile on your face."
I said, "Girls,"

Chorus
I ain't as good as I once was
I got a few years on me now

See that big blue note over there on the counter
You don't wanna read that thing man it's a real getcha downer
But don't you dare say nothing else, bad about her
Cause she's gone

No, No, No, No don't throw it away, cause tonight I might need it
It gets real lonley around here at night sometimes and I have to re-read it
Besides, you can show it to the boys down town they won't believe that

My grandmother owned a nightclub
on the Arkansas-Oklahoma line
Momma put me on a Greyhound,
and I went to stay with her in the summertime
I'd box up those empty longnecks and
stack 'em in the back and make a hand
Then at night she'd let me sneak out of the kitchen
and sit in with the band

Yes, I have sacked some quarterbacks and broke
my share of bones along the way

I got it bad
i got it blue
i got it sad
i aint got you
i did you wrong
you got the right
look
what i had
i got it bad

gone and left me lonely cryin' like a fool
i just cant belive love could be so cruel

i got it bad
i got it blue
i got it sad
i aint got you
i did you wrong
you got the right
look
what i had
i got it bad

i know someday ill get on my feet again

Do blondes really have more fun
Or they just easier to spot in the dark?
Girl, I'm just tryin' to cheer you up
I saw you sittin' over here all alone, with a broken heart
It's hurtin' you real bad, wish there was somethin' that I had
I'd hook you up, get you through it
You might need a man to hold you 'til it don't
I'm just the guy to do it

If you wanna go back to him, baby, get up and go
im tired of being a clown caught up in your
sideshow
night after night it never ends
its like a heavyweight fight nobody wins
and im throwin'
in the towel, enough is enough

[chorus]
Knock yourself out, break me in two
you gotta go do what you gotta do
i gave you my best shot, but
you didnt fall
head over heels in love after all

I gave up on cigarettes to the day, I ain't touched one yet
But tonight, I think I'm gonna burn the whole pack.
I laid off 9

Her bags are packed and waitin' for someone to come and pick'em up outside
ah yeah i dont know
where they come from, man, i aint seen that much luggage in my life
she was always bad about leavin'
especially every time i done her wrong
this time she mihgt be through believin' me
yeah, this time
she might be good as gone, gone, gone

[chorus]
we'd still be together, but she left me

June fell for Johnny on the Forth of July,
As the fireworks popped in the summer sky.
With a spark in her eye, she just there an' stared,
As his face lit up to the rocket's red glare.
An' by September, she'd asked him for a weddiing band.
How could she know he was a ramblin' man.
He walked out the door in the dead of the night.
An' a sleepy voice whispered, as he turned out the light:

Till death do us part is what she told that preacher man
Now she says this ain't worth dyin' for
She's had all she can't stand
She's boxed up momma's china, it's loaded on the truck
She's just got started packin, and I'm thinkin' this could suck
Now there goes my Lay-Z Boy and my flat top guitar
Here comes her big sister, what's she doin' in my car
As they drive off to the city I just waved

I don't need this conversation
'Cause I don't need to see you cry
You need one more confirmation
Like I need one more reason why

I know this might not be the answer
Oh, that you came here to get
We both know that girl is somethin'
That I'm still not over yet

I cant go on using you
Girl, it feels like I'm losin' you
A love like yours is hard to find
But you caught be at a bad time

Now those might be the saddest,
Big 'ol baby blues I ever seen.
How did I know, you'd been cryin'?
Baby, you got make-up runnin' down your cheek.
You're just a Queen lookin' for a crown,
Lost when you stumbled over some silly clown.

Take that frown,
Turn it upside down,
'Cause you never know who might be,
Fallin' in love with your smile.

A broken heart that's on the mend,
