《That’s Why I Sing This Way》歌词

时长： 02:56

My Momma used to tell me Son you better get your work done[00:00:09]

Your Daddy's coming home at five[00:00:13]

And if you ain't all through with the chores you gotta do[00:00:16]

Boy I'm gonna tan you alive[00:00:20]

I was glued to the radio listening to my hero[00:00:23]

Singing them sad old songs[00:00:26]

Singing them sadder than a one car funeral[00:00:30]

Nobody sings like Jones[00:00:33]

I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room[00:00:38]

And I'd play it like an old guitar[00:00:42]

Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George[00:00:45]

Dreaming of becoming a star[00:00:49]

Well things I never did when I was just a kid[00:00:51]

Made me what I am today[00:00:55]

You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:00:58]

That's why I sing this way[00:01:02]

So I ended up in Nashville working at a saw mill[00:01:16]

Just to be close to the stars[00:01:20]

I got a little broke but I couldn't ask my folks[00:01:22]

So I had to hock my old guitar[00:01:26]

I still hang around tootsie's orchid lounge thinking[00:01:29]

He'll walk through that door[00:01:33]

But a voice in my mind says You wasting your time[00:01:36]

'Cause George don't drink no more[00:01:39]

I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room[00:01:44]

And I'd play it like an old guitar[00:01:48]

Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George[00:01:51]

Dreaming of becoming a star[00:01:55]

Well things I never did when I was just a kid[00:01:57]

Made me what I am today[00:02:01]

You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:02:04]

That's why I sing this way[00:02:08]

Well things I never did when I was just a kid[00:02:23]

Made me what I am today[00:02:28]

You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:02:31]

That's why I sing this way[00:02:35]

Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:02:39]

That's why I sing this way[00:02:42]
