Miss Emily's Picture (In the Style of John Conlee) [Karaoke Version]

歌詞

I wake up in the morning is a state of fright On the wrong side of the bed all night Clinging to the broken heart Inside my head Open my eyes and I move my hand From 'round her pillow to the nightstand And straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed Go to the office; the work's piled up pour three fingers bourbon in my coffee cup Cry on my best friend's shoulder down the hall Feel so lonely, when I close the door Bite my nails and I walk the floor And straighten Miss Emily's picture on my wall Look out my window and what do I see Nothing but pain looking back at me All that my future means to me Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind And straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then I leave my office and I go downtown to a little bar we all hang around Laugh drink beer -shoot pool and have a ball When the laughter stops and the hurt takes hold Reach in my pocket for my billfold And show Miss Emily's picture to em' all I stagger in the house and I slam the door Scatter my clothes all over the floor Wishing I could do the same thing in my head Drink a beer and I eat a bite And just before I turn out the light I straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed Look out my window and what do I see Nothing but pain looking back at me All that my future means to me Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind And straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then
