《That’s Why I Sing This Way》歌词

[00:00:00] That's Why I Sing This Way - Hit Crew Masters

[00:00:10] My Momma used to tell me

[00:00:12] "Son you better get your work done

[00:00:14] Your Daddy's coming home at five

[00:00:17] And if you ain't all through with the chores you gotta do

[00:00:21] Boy I'm gonna tan you alive"

[00:00:25] I was glued to the radio listening to my hero

[00:00:29] Singing them sad old songs

[00:00:33] Singing them sadder than a one car funeral

[00:00:36] Nobody sings like Jones

[00:00:42] I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room

[00:00:45] And I'd play it like an old guitar

[00:00:49] Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George

[00:00:52] Dreaming of becoming a star

[00:00:55] Well things I never did when I was just a kid

[00:00:59] Made me what I am today

[00:01:02] You see Momma used to whoop me with

[00:01:04] A George Jones album

[00:01:06] That's why I sing this way

[00:01:21] So I ended up in Nashville working at a saw mill

[00:01:25] Just to be close to the stars

[00:01:28] I got a little broke but I couldn't ask my folks

[00:01:31] So I had to hock my old guitar

[00:01:34] I still hang around tootsie's orchid lounge thinking

[00:01:38] He'll walk through that door

[00:01:41] But a voice in my mind says "You wasting your time

[00:01:45] 'Cause George don't drink no more"

[00:01:50] I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room

[00:01:54] And I'd play it like an old guitar

[00:01:58] Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George

[00:02:01] Dreaming of becoming a star

[00:02:04] Well things I never did when I was just a kid

[00:02:08] Made me what I am today

[00:02:11] You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album

[00:02:15] That's why I sing this way

[00:02:20] You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album

[00:02:25] That's why I sing this way
