TroubadourI call myself a troubadour And I play from town to town I'm a regular one man band With that classic country sound I sell my tapes at all my shows You get three for fifteen bucks I used to be the next big thing Now I'm just a never was Chorus: Twenty years ago they told me That I was taking off On the way to fame and fortune I guess that I got lost Everyone used to tell me You're going to be a star Well I guess this star has faded Into a country troubadour I didn't read the first contract Some Nashville suit gave to me Now they tell me all of my songs Belong to some company Bridge: So I play these honky tonks, County fairs and VFW halls I sing lots of Hank Snow songs And the Wabash Cannonball I can sing lots of Hank Snow songs And the Wabash Cannonball It's not the never making it That weighs heavy on my soul It's too many what could have beens And all these we'll never knows Chorus: Twenty years ago they told me That I was taking off On the way to fame and fortune I guess that I got lost Everyone used to tell me You're going to be a star Well I guess this star has faded Into a country troubadour Copyright Kent Newsome and Toby Darling All Rights Reserved |
