Artist/Band: Johnny Paycheck
Lyrics for Song: Old Violin
Lyrics for Album: The Soul & the Edge: The Best of Johnny Paycheck [ [2002]



Well, I can't recall, one time in my life

I've felt as lonely as I do tonight

I feel like I could lay down, and get up no more

It's the damndest feelin'; I never felt it before.



Tonight I feel like an old violin

Soon to be put away and never played again

Don't ask me why I feel like this, hell, I can't say

I only wish this feelin' would just go away.



I guess it's 'cos the truth

Is the hardest thing I ever faced

'Cos you can't change the truth

In the slightest way. I tried.



So I asked myself

I said: "John, where'd you go from here?"

Then like a damned fool

I turned around and looked in the mirror.



And there I saw, an old violin

Soon to be put away and never played again.



So one more time, just to be sure

I said: "John, where in the hell do you go from here?"

You know that when a nickel's worth of difference

And I looked in the mirror, that's when I knew.



That there I was seein', an old violin

Soon to be put away, and never played again.



And just like that, it hit me

That old violin and I were just alike

We'd give our all to music

And soon, we'd give our life...
