Darkness on the Edge of TownesThere's darkness on the edge of Townes Uncle Mark gave us the news They say he went stark raving mad Trying to outrun his blues I kept thinking of that movie The one with him and Guy He fell in a hole in his yard And sang "Waiting Around to Die" Chorus: So go unplug the jukebox And turn out all the lights There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight The troubadour sang his song And exited stage right There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight I met him once, we talked a while He seemed wise beyond his years I told him when I heard Marie It always brought me to tears He played it in the second set From behind rose colored shades There's nothing else as sad and good As the music that he made Chorus: So go unplug the jukebox And turn out all the lights There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight The troubadour sang his song And exited stage right There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight Do you think he saw it coming Do it catch him by surprise Sometimes when you least expect it Life hits you between the eyes Chorus: So go unplug the jukebox And turn out all the lights There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight The troubadour sang his song And exited stage right There's darkness on the edge of Townes There'll be no music tonight Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
