Listen They're Playing My Song

Waylon Jennings · Destiny's Child [Bear Family] [1999]

Down the street a baby just cried

When he woke up all alone

A train's leavin' town and that lonesome old sound

Is chilling me right to the bone.



A song is playing, I can barely hear

About a love that's gone wrong

The freezing rain on my window pane

Listen, they're playing my song.



Taps being played by a soldier's grave

So sad, it torments your soul

Just listen to that north wind moan

Tonight it's so dark and cold.



Somewhere a siren cuts through the night

Sounds like a whole world's gone wrong

Thunder just warned but it's coming a storm

Listen, they're playing my song...
