Jim Lauderdale - I'll Sing Again lyrics
Your rating:
I'm gonna sit right here all day and night That's what I said, reckon you heard me right Don't care about fame or fortune in the eyes of men Just take what the law allows and say "Amen" I heard the Memphis train speak to the moon Whipped out my fountain pen, wrote down the tune Don't care if it's been sung, I don't know when Such a good old tune I'll sing again I'll sing again (I'll sing again) I'll sing again (I'll sing again) Of busted dreams and god-forsaken men Of lonesome roads that never seem to end And when I'm done, get up and sing again Heard old lonesome coyote's midnight song A-howling at the moonlight all night long I grabbed my pen and wrote down on my sleeve How hearts that love, they sometime got to grieve I'll sing again (I'll sing again) Yes, sing again (Yes, sing again) Just as long and loudly as I can Some say the coyote howls, some say the moon But only broken hearts can sing that tune I hear a guitar ring 'bout half past nine Plays watermelon hanging on the vine The baby wakes up crying down the hall And the undertaker's beating on the wall I'll sing again (I'll sing again) Yes, sing again (Yes, sing again) Like any evening train heard round the bend I mean to speak if it don't offend But if I happen to I'll sing again I mean to speak if it don't offend But if I happen to I'll sing again
