Sad Song

Take me out tonight

Baby, don't wait too long

Take me out tonight

Baby, don't wait too long

Rattle me up when it all goes wrong

All I can hear is this sad song

Yeah, the banjos are rolling

They're tappin' those tambourines

Yeah, the banjos are rolling

They're tappin' those tambourines

Baby's gonna dance while I sit here instead

With a sad song reelin' around in my head

So raise your glass, I'll just pretend

I'm still havin' fun, but I know how it ends

You'll sing along as I fall apart

'Cause there's always a sad song livin' in my heart

Mmm, hmm

Yeah, when I was a child

Things were goin' fine

Yeah, when I was a child

Things were goin' fine

Then trouble come blowin' on a wind in the pines

Left me with a sad song planted in my mind

Mmm, hmm

So I'm gonna buy me

'Lectric guitar

Yeah, I'm gonna buy me

'Lectric guitar

And I'll turn it up just as loud as she goes

But this sad old song is all that she knows

So raise your glass, I'll just pretend

I'm still havin' fun, but I know how it ends

You'll sing along as I fall apart

'Cause there's always a sad song livin' in my heart

Yeah, raise your glass, I'll just pretend

I'm still havin' fun, but I know how it ends

You'll sing along as I fall apart

'Cause there's always a sad song livin' in my heart

Mmm, hmm
