Me And Willie
We traveled the northern route and from the Greate Lakes to Monreal Hitting all the honkytonks, I bet we played them all Willie played to ease his soul and drank to ease his mind I never understood how he played it so good while drinking himseld half blind. And you
Wouldn't think a man so weak could be so strong Take a crowd of rowdy drunks and hush them with a song. And I'd rather be singing my heart out in a dark and dingy bar. Hitting those high notes with Willie's sad guitar. And I'd rather be singing a blues song singing sweet and high Willie standing right by my side playing country slide.
ME and Willie watched a lot of dreams die young. Plans we made how quick they fade, fumbling one by one. Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Willie never let it bother him and if he did, it didn't show. You know he had a way of letting go am king the blue times old.
And you wouldn't think a man so weak, could be so strong. Take the blues right out of you and put them in a song. I'd rather be singing....etc.
I left Willie in a bar in Marietta Couldn't stand to watch the man I love drink himself to death. Now I'm working in Ottawa and I'm doing well I guess. You know the good life don't look so good from behind a desk And I'd rather be singing....etc
