Forgetfullness for Sale - Vernon Oxford[00:00:00]
Written by:DR[00:00:00]
I saw a neon invitation flashing red and green temptation[00:00:14]
And the sign read we've got whiskey wine and ales[00:00:22]
Come and step into our shadow leave outside whatever matters[00:00:29]
Tonight we've got forgetfulness for sale[00:00:37]
I heard the jukebox saw the dance floor[00:00:44]
I said this is my last chance for happiness[00:00:47]
For after all all else has failed[00:00:53]
So I gave the man my money some woman whispered honey[00:00:58]
And I thought I'd found forgetfulness for sale[00:01:06]
In the bargain basement of the honky tonk[00:01:13]
Where they teach you not to think and for awhile you don't[00:01:20]
I laugh and dance and drink and the all the world was gay[00:01:28]
Till morning came and all the numbness wore away[00:01:35]
Now I'm right back down to hurtin'[00:01:42]
So afraid of I've learned for certain[00:01:46]
That forgetting you is all to no avail[00:01:50]
I'd pay any price their asking[00:01:57]
But it's just too big a tasking[00:02:01]
No one's got enough forgetfulness for sale[00:02:04]
I'd pay any price their asking[00:02:19]
But it's just too big a tasking[00:02:21]
No one's got enough forgetfulness for sale[00:02:26]
