[ti:Me And Willie (Remastered LP Version)] [ar:Emmylou Harris] [al:Luxury Liner] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] Me And Willie (Remastered LP Version) - Emmylou Harris Me and Willie played in a country band Seven long years together Playing those one night stands Used to say the booze and bars Is going to wear him out Hold on a song he wrote Tear your heart right out We traveled the northern route And from the Greate Lakes to Monreal Hitting all the honkytonks I bet we played them all Willie played to ease his soul and Drank to ease his mind I never understood how he played it so good while Drinking himself half blind And you Wouldn't think a man so weak Could be so strong Take a crowd of rowdy drunks and Hush them with a song And I'd rather be singing my heart out In a dark and dingy bar Hitting those high notes with Willie's sad guitar And I'd rather be singing a blues song Singing sweet and high Willie standing right by my side Playing country slide Me and Willie watched a lot of dreams die young Plans we made how quick they fade Fumbling one by one Willie never let it bother him and if he did It didn't show You know he had a way of letting go Am the blue times old And you wouldn't think a man so weak Could be so strong Take the blues right out of you And put them in a song I'd rather be singing my heart out In a dark and dingy bar Hitting those high notes with Willie's sad guitar And I'd rather be singing a blues song Singing sweet and high Willie standing right by my side Playing country slide I left Willie in a bar in Marietta Couldn't stand to watch the man I love drink himself to death Now I'm working in Ottawa And I'm doing well I guess You know the good life don't look so good From behind a desk And I'd rather be singing my heart out In a dark and dingy bar Hitting those high notes with Willie's sad guitar And I'd rather be singing a blues song Singing sweet and high Willie standing right by my side Playing country slide
