"Hour On The Hour" lyrics

"Hour On The Hour"

It's another hit about a heartache
Somebody done somebody wrong
All that remains of a memory
Now lives forever in a song
They took a million broken pieces
To fill an empty page with lines
They find a few to string together
And find a way to make 'em rhyme

And every hour on the hour
It plays on my radio
And one thing leads to another
Then another and another one

I don't mind a steady backbeat
Or a crying steel guitar
But you can keep your shot of whiskey
And who wants another broken heart?
These days I drive around in silence
Scared to death to touch the dial
For fear of bringing back a memory
Damn near every country mile

But every hour on the hour
It plays on my radio
And one thing leads to another
Then another and another one

And I know everybody's been there
But I don't need to hear the tale
I've got that devil on my shoulder
The same as anybody else
Some days I need some one to talk to
But I don't need no troubadour
Singin' me a sad reminder
Of someone walkin' out the door

Every hour on the hour
It plays on my radio
And one thing leads to another
Then another and another and another and another one
