Joe Don't Let Your Music Kill You

(Tom T. Hall)



Joe don't let your music kill ya, it's a thing that supposed to fill ya

It's a thing that supposed to make you happy

Taking pills and drinking whiskey picking can be mighty risky

Joe don't let your music kill ya nobody cares.



That song that you've been singing it's not what you think

I know you've seen some sunny days

You love your music but you love your life

And there's nothing silent like a grave.



Joe don't let your music kill ya, it's a thing that supposed to fill ya

It's a thing that supposed to make you happy

Taking pills and drinking whiskey picking can be mighty risky

Joe don't let your music kill ya nobody cares.



Hunger can be killed with a can of beans

Don't let 'em tell you that I'm wrong

You got a good woman and she's got her dreams

Don't hang your life up for a song.



Joe don't let your music kill ya, it's a thing that supposed to fill ya

It's a thing that supposed to make you happy

Taking pills and drinking whiskey picking can be mighty risky

Joe don't let your music kill ya nobody cares.



Joe don't let your music kill ya, it's a thing that supposed to fill ya

It's a thing that supposed to make you happy

Taking pills and drinking whiskey picking can be mighty risky

Joe don't let your music kill ya nobody cares...
