Play me something nice and easy
Let the music be an old familiar friend
Help me hold this pretty lady tight
Play that good old hurtin' songs again
I heard you say that's closing time
I'm sure you're tired you played a lot tonight
It's takin' me this long but that old beer would let me down enough
To get a cheatin' woman off my mind
Play me something nice and easy...
[ fiddle ]
I'm sure by now you heard enough
Stories like the ones I put you through
But if you could play me one more song the one about a love gone wrong
I'll find the way to make it up to you
Play me something nice and easy...
Help me hold this pretty lady tight
Play that good old hurtin' songs again
