That'll Never Sell Records - Don Bowman[00:00:00]

I wrote the purtiest song in the world[00:00:12]

About this boy that loved this girl[00:00:14]

They fell in love and all that stuff[00:00:17]

Somehow that just wadn't enough[00:00:19]

Cause when I took it to RCA[00:00:22]

They listened a minute an' then I heard them say[00:00:24]

That'll never sell records mighty purty though[00:00:29]

But that serious stuff it ain't sellin' this year[00:00:35]

Write it over and then let us hear[00:00:38]

And them happy endings just gotta go[00:00:41]

Back to the drawing board I went[00:00:46]

Find more trouble them kids get in[00:00:48]

Then they decided to run off somewhere and wed[00:00:51]

The parents wanted them to wait instead[00:00:54]

But they eloped found a justice of peace[00:00:56]

They was sayin' I do and in walked the police[00:00:59]

They was underage so they told a lie[00:01:01]

Preacher he had to grab her and died[00:01:04]

Kids were taken back home to stay[00:01:07]

Then I took my song back to RCA[00:01:09]

That'll never sell records mighty purty though[00:01:14]

But that serious stuff it ain't sellin' this year[00:01:20]

Write it over and then let us hear[00:01:23]

And them happy endings just gotta go[00:01:25]

I was beginnin' to wonder if I could write a hit[00:01:30]

Thought I'd try once more before I quit[00:01:33]

This boy and girl they met in a bar[00:01:36]

Had a few drinks and then stole a car[00:01:38]

Didn't like each other they sure weren't in love[00:01:41]

But they sure were married when they sobered up[00:01:44]

So they got a divorce on the way back[00:01:46]

When the car stopped dead on the railroad tracks[00:01:49]

It was freezin' cold and he held her tighter[00:01:52]

Burned her arm on the cigarette lighter[00:01:55]

Temperature dropped to forty below[00:01:57]

Train was comin' with the final blow[00:02:00]

Looked like the end of a perfect day[00:02:02]

So I took my song back to RCA[00:02:05]

Now that'll sell records four million or so[00:02:09]

See that serious stuff ain't sellin' this year[00:02:15]

This true love junk's what they wanna hear[00:02:18]

And them happy endings just gotta go[00:02:21]

Movin' awful slow just ain't cuttin' it this year[00:02:26]

That hearts and flowers stuff[00:02:32]

Somebody don't get it[00:02:35]
