CANTANTE: David Allan Coe

TITULO:Another Pretty Country Song

I bought this rhinestone suit in california
these boots came all the way from mexico
this cadillac ain't nothin' son you ought to see the greyhound
i bought to take my band from show to show
seen my face a thousand times on tv and heard me on your local radio
and in your eyes i see the admiration there for me
but son there's something that you ought to know
Well i've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'
motel rooms ain't nothing like a home
money can't make love grow any stronger when you leave your woman home alone
she can't raise the children with no daddy
she can't love a man that's always gone
it takes a whole lot more than pride to keep your feelings locked inside
while you sing another pretty country song
(play it pete drake)
[ steel ]
(i've seen your face a thousand times on tv i've heard you on my local radio)
It's true i took some pills to stay awake son
and this diamond ring i wear is just for show
i've got a little cabin in the country
when i'm not on the road that's where i go
try and put my feelings down on paper
right or wrong the show has to go on
i can cry down deep inside and keep on smilin'
while i sing another pretty country song
but i've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'
