Sad Song Lyrics by Willie Watson

Willie Watson

2024

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Yeah, the banjos rollin’, tappin’ those tambourines
Yeah, the banjos rollin’, tappin’ those tambourines
Baby’s gonna dance while I sit here instead
With a sad song reelin’ around in my head
[Chorus]
So raise your glass, I’ll just pretend
Still having fun, but I know how it ends
You'll sing along as I fall apart
There's always a sad song livin' in my heart (mhm)
[Verse 3]
Yeah, when I was a child, things were going fine
Yeah, when I was a child, things were going fine
Trouble come blowin' on a wind in the pines
Left me with a sad song planted in my mind (mhm)
[Verse 4]
So I’m gonna buy me electric guitar
Yeah, I’m gonna buy me electric guitar
And I'll turn it up just as loud as she goes
But a sad song is all that she knows
[Chorus]
So raise your glass, I’ll just pretend
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
[Chorus]
Raise your glass, I’ll just pretend
Still havin’ fun, but I know how it ends
You’ll sing along as I fall apart
There’s always a sad song livin’ in my heart (mhm)
