"Please Mr Please" lyrics

In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox
With the best of country music old and new
You can hear your five selections for a quarter
And somebody else's songs when yours are through

I've got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter
And my friends around to help me ease the pain
Till some button pushing cowboy plays that love song
And here I am just missing you again

Please, Mr, please, don't play B 17
It was our song, it was his song
But it's over
Please, Mr, please
If you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again

If I had a dime for every time I held you
Though you're far away you've been so close to me
I swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville
Maybe even in the state of Tennessee

So I guess I better get myself together
Cause when you left you didn't leave too much behind
Just a note that said I'm sorry by your picture
And a song that's weighing heavy on my mind

Please, Mr, please, don't play B 17
It was our song, it was his song
But it's over
Please, Mr, please
If you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again

Please, Mr, please, don't play B 17
It was our song, it was his song
But it's over
Please, Mr, please
If you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again
I don't ever wanna hear that song again
