Artist/Band: Roy Orbison
Lyrics for Song: Tired Old Country Song
Lyrics for Album: Rare Orbison V.2 [1996]



Another day, another night

Another tired old country song

You know, I sing of love delight

But I know it's all wrong



The life I live out on the road

Is one I swear no one could love

Yet I feel I must go on

And sing this tired

This tired old Country song



I move around from place to place

But all the towns look just the same

I see the same old face

Losin' still my claim to fame



I'll sing the guitar blues

Drink my drink and pay the dues

Then I guess I'll ramble on

And sing this tired

This tired old country song



Why did I have to compromise

To reach my piece of the fame?

Life could have been so different

In that eight to five game



So I guess I'll settle down

Get my feet back on the ground

Once a country star

Now I'm just a country clown



Hang my guitar on the wall

I won't need it anymore

For I think the time has come

To end this tired

This tired old country song

To end this tired

This tired old country song
