Memories Cost A Lot

(アルバム： Whitey Morgan And The 78's - 2010)

Last night I wrote some songs with a friend of mine
You could say he's a legend in my mind
He said "Boy, I can feel your pain through your whiskey mind
"But there's more to writing songs than rhyming lines"

He said "Memories cost a lot when you don't make 'em
"Well, when you lose your family, son, you never really can replace 'em
"And that's good for writing songs if your heart can take 'em
"Son, memories cost a lot when you don't make 'em"

"Those records on the wall are cold as ice
"Hell, writing what you're living ain't no good for family life
"So don't envy me for what those records say
"Hell that ain't nothing but my misery on display"

He said "Memories cost a lot when you don't make 'em
"Hell, when you lose your family, son, you never really can replace 'em
"And that's good for writing songs if your heart can take 'em
"Son, memories cost a lot when you don't make 'em"
