My First Country Song

(Album: I've Already Loved You In My Mind - 1977)

I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurting feeling all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song.

I always like to hear
those country singers sing
And the way they play those guitars
Boy they sure do make 'em ring.

But when they sing the words
I can never sing along.
I didn't believe things happen that way
I thought our love was here to stay.

Till yesterday she walked away
And now they're hitting home.

I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurting feeling all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song.

I wrote some words
about the good times that we had
And then some lines about losing my mind
or missing you so bad.

And I did leave out a thing
about the way you done me wrong
And I sang my song to the saddest note
that anybody ever wrote.

And I think that I just wrote my first country song.

I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurting feeling all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song...
