Porter Wagoner - Words And Music Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I was in a lonely cafe by the roadside all unfriendly people no one said a word
  • When in there stepped a starry eyed old stranger
  • He sat down threw up his arms and then I heard
  • Let me have about me lots of words and music
  • Gather round and tell me anything you know
  • Let's talk and sing and let's have words and music
  • Give me lots of words and music till I go
  • Then with spirits high and the conversation livens
  • The old man told us all where he'd come from
  • He said where I've been it's dark and lonely and you know I hardly ever see the sun
  • The kids all said the place would be best for me
  • And they took all the money they said to pay the bills
  • But you know I haven't heard a word from 'em and I sorta think I never will
  • And words're so important when you're lonely
  • And music has always been so good for me
  • So let's talk and sing and let's have words and music
  • Cause they'll come find me and they'll see that I got free
  • Then the old man's starry eyes grew cold and lifeless
  • When he saw the men in white suits standin' at the door
  • He turned and shouted please don't take me back there
  • And then he fell down to his knees upon the floor
  • Then stepping from a corner of the cafe a mask of teardrops streaming down his face
  • A young man came to claim his long lost daddy
  • And soon their happy voices filled the place
  • Let me have about me...
  • Give me lots of words and music till I go
