I fall in and I fall out of love
People ask me what I’m thinking of?
All that pain and all that sorrow
Will’ya still love me tomorrow?
Play the tune on my guitar
Always dreamed I’d be a star ………
We pay our dues in strange venues
The agent never checks us
We don’t rock like ZZ Top
And we don’t come from Texas.
I once knew a girl her name was Ruby
I believed that she once loved my truly
‘Til I saw her from the stage
All dressed up like Betty Page
Laughin’ with the boys and flirtin’
I was up on stage and hurtin’ ………
I got stuck inside a five piece band
Every night another one night stand
Singing songs for Peggy Sue
Lost my heart in Blue Bayou
Lots of fans and adulation
But not much remuneration ……
