I won't be blue anymore I'll go out on the town And I'll take all my friends Every honky tonk around And they'll help me forget you And the way it used to be Then I won't be blue anymore The only friends I've got now Since you've been gone Two arms that used to hold you And the heart that surely broke And the mind that sometimes wonders 'bout my sanity So they made me make this promise to me I won't be blue anymore I'll go out on the town And I'll take all my friends Every honky tonk around And they'll help me forget you And the way it used to be Then I won't be blue anymore My friends are always with me Even when I'm alone They watch over and protect me 'Cause they know how far I've gone They're the only ones that care now And they knew that they could help So they made me make this promise to myself I won't be blue anymore I'll go out on the town And I'll take all my friends Every honky tonk around And they'll help me forget you And the way it used to be Then I won't be blue anymore No, I won't be blue anymore

When the sun sets west and the birds fly south When you can't rest in a stranger's house And you can taste it in your mouth Well I won't, I won't be there that day You're heading north but you're looking east Searching for that missing puzzle piece You're trying to force the famine to feast But I won't, I won't be there that day So come on, come on, throw it all away Save your heart for a rainy day For no one knows the price you'll pay But I won't, I won't be there that day When the tide rolls in and your luck runs out When it's sink or swim When it's drink or draught You can rest assured You can have no doubt That I won't, I won't be there that day So come on, come on, throw it all away Save your heart for a rainy day For no one knows the price you'll pay But I won't, I won't be there that day No, I won't, I won't be there that day

Won't you be there Won't you be there Won't you be.there Won't you. Won't you be there Won't you.

Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster While the night is still heavy on the ground And the voice of Uncle Ben seems to break the morning silence Bringing lights to windows all around Well it's time to rise and shine and start another hard work day Get the cows in and start the milking chores It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore [ Steel - fiddle ] Something bout the smell of cornbread cooking on a wood stove Seems to bring a picture to my mind Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen But she can't stop to talk ain't got the time She's a fixing dad his supper he's a working over time Tryin' to pay our bill at the grocery store It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore [ Steel - fiddle ] As I think about my childhood and of my old hometown I don't really miss them like before It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore

There's a house just down the street A welcome mat outside the door But it's for him and not for me I never pass there anymore Within this house there is a girl I'll always adore But I've been banished from her world I never pass there anymore Within this girl there is a heart And in this part there is a love But it's a love for someone else I'm not the one she's dreaming of Yes, there's a house just down the street I've been there many times before But now it's best we never meet I never pass there anymore Within this girl there is a heart And in this part there is a love But it's a love for someone else I'm not the one she's dreaming of Yes, there's a house just down the street I've been there many times before But now it's best we never meet I never pass there anymore
