Please Mr Please |
|
In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox |
|
With the best of country music, old and new |
|
You can hear your five selections for a quarter |
|
And somebody else's songs when yours are through |
|
I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter |
|
And my friends around to help me ease the pain |
|
'Til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song |
|
And here I am just missing you again |
|
Please, Mr., please, don't play B-17 |
|
It was our song, it was his song, but it's over |
|
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean |
|
I don't ever wanna hear that song again |
|
If I had a dime for every time I held you |
|
Though you're far away, you've been so close to me |
|
I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville |
|
Maybe even in the state of Tennessee |
|
But I guess I'd better get myself together |
|
'Cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind |
|
Just a note that said "I'm sorry" by your picture |
|
And a song that's weighing heavy on my mind |
|
Please, Mr., please, don't play B-17 |
|
It was our song, it was his song, but it's over |
|
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean |
|
I don't ever wanna hear that song again |
