Please Mr. Please
(专辑: Have You Never Been Mellow - 1975)
In the
corner of the
bar there stands a
jukebox With the
best of country music, old and new You can hear your five selections for a
quarter And somebody else's songs when yours are through I
got good Kentucky whiskey on the
counter And my friends around to help me ease the
pain 'Til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song And here I
am just missing you again Please, Mr., please, don't play B-17 It was our song, it was his song, but it's over Please, Mr., please, if you know what I
mean I
don't ever wanna hear that song again If I
had a
dime for every time I
held you Though you're far away, you've been so close to me I
could swear I'd be the
richest girl in Nashville Maybe even in the
state of Tennessee But I
guess I'd better get myself together 'Cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind Just a
note that said "I'm sorry" by your picture And a
song that's weighing heavy on my mind Please, Mr., please, don't play B-17 It was our song, it was his song, but it's over Please, Mr., please, if you know what I
mean I
don't ever wanna hear that song again
