"Sad Song" lyrics

Take me out tonight, baby, don't wait too long
Take me out tonight, baby, don't wait too long
Rattle me up when it all goes wrong
All I can hear is this sad song

Banjo's rolling and tapping those tambourines
The banjo's rolling and tapping those tambourines
Daddy's gonna dance while I sit here instead
With a sad song reeling around in my head

So, raise your glass, I'll just pretend
I'm still having fun, but I know how it ends
You'll sing along as I fall apart
There's always a sad song living in my heart, mmm

When I was a child, things were going fine
When I was a child, things were going fine
And trouble come blowing on a wind in the pines
Left me with a sad song planted in my mind

So, I'm gonna buy me an electric guitar
I'm gonna buy me an electric guitar
I'll turn it up just as loud as she goes
The sad old song is all that she knows

So, raise your glass, and I'll just pretend
I'm still having fun, but I know how it ends
You'll sing along as I fall apart
'Cause there's always a sad song living in my heart

Raise your glass, and I'll just pretend
I'm still having fun, but I know how it ends
You'll sing along as I fall apart
'Cause there's always a sad song living in my heart, mmm
