From the recording Hard West (double CD)
Lyrics
6) Same Ol’ Song
m.litton
So many times I’ve heard the same ol’ song
Closed my eyes and simply played along
I’d ask you why, but what’s the use?
They ain’t no answer this time, no excuse
Chorus: Tonight I know just where you are
Same ol’ song, you’re playin’ in the bar, in the bar...
I gaze up at the flashing neon sign
Turn to leave then I change my mind
Roll up my collar, lower my hat brim
Walk inside and see you with him
(chorus)
In the darkness he lights your cigarette
The dance has ended, your bodies sweat
He brings you each another glass
Will you leave with him?
Well I’ll be your sweet...yes-yes-yes-yes
(chorus)
