Me And Willie (Remastered LP Version) - Emmylou Harris[00:00:00]
Me and Willie played in a country band[00:00:05]
Seven long years together[00:00:13]
Playing those one night stands[00:00:16]
Used to say the booze and bars[00:00:21]
Is going to wear him out[00:00:25]
Hold on a song he wrote[00:00:29]
Tear your heart right out[00:00:33]
We traveled the northern route[00:00:38]
And from the Greate Lakes to Monreal[00:00:40]
Hitting all the honkytonks [00:00:46]
I bet we played them all[00:00:50]
Willie played to ease his soul and[00:00:55]
Drank to ease his mind[00:00:59]
I never understood how he played it so good while[00:01:02]
Drinking himself half blind [00:01:07]
And you[00:01:10]
Wouldn't think a man so weak[00:01:11]
Could be so strong[00:01:15]
Take a crowd of rowdy drunks and[00:01:20]
Hush them with a song [00:01:24]
And I'd rather be singing my heart out[00:01:26]
In a dark and dingy bar [00:01:33]
Hitting those high notes with[00:01:37]
Willie's sad guitar [00:01:40]
And I'd rather be singing a blues song[00:01:42]
Singing sweet and high [00:01:50]
Willie standing right by my side[00:01:55]
Playing country slide [00:01:59]
Me and Willie watched a lot of dreams die young [00:02:06]
Plans we made how quick they fade [00:02:14]
Fumbling one by one [00:02:17]
Willie never let it bother him and if he did [00:02:22]
It didn't show [00:02:26]
You know he had a way of letting go[00:02:30]
Am the blue times old [00:02:34]
And you wouldn't think a man so weak [00:02:37]
Could be so strong [00:02:43]
Take the blues right out of you[00:02:47]
And put them in a song [00:02:51]
I'd rather be singing my heart out[00:02:53]
In a dark and dingy bar [00:03:00]
Hitting those high notes with[00:03:04]
Willie's sad guitar [00:03:07]
And I'd rather be singing a blues song[00:03:10]
Singing sweet and high [00:03:17]
Willie standing right by my side[00:03:22]
Playing country slide [00:03:26]
I left Willie in a bar in Marietta[00:03:56]
Couldn't stand to watch the man[00:04:03]
I love drink himself to death [00:04:06]
Now I'm working in Ottawa[00:04:11]
And I'm doing well I guess [00:04:15]
You know the good life don't look so good[00:04:19]
From behind a desk [00:04:24]
And I'd rather be singing my heart out[00:04:26]
In a dark and dingy bar [00:04:33]
Hitting those high notes with[00:04:37]
Willie's sad guitar [00:04:40]
And I'd rather be singing a blues song[00:04:43]
Singing sweet and high [00:04:50]
Willie standing right by my side[00:04:55]
Playing country slide[00:04:59]
