I'm Tired

Ray Price · The Honky Tonk Years (1950-1966) [Bear Family (Ger [1996]

(Mel Tillis - Webb Pierce - Buck Peddy)



Well, I'm standin' on the corner of a busy street

A lookin' for your face in ever crowd I meet

Searchin' every honky tonk in this town

Tryin' to find the places where you hang around.

Oh Lord, I'm tired, tired of living this a-way.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, I've been waitin', on you baby, night and day

A wonderin' if your love will ever come my way

But time's runnin' out and I'm a-slowin' down

I'm tired of bein' just another hang around

Oh Lord, I'm tired, tired of living this a way.



--- Instrumental ---



There ain't no happiness in anything I do

I found myself so lonely when I'm not with you

What makes you just a kinda girl a guy will love

You've got so many others that you're thinking of

Oh Lord, I'm tired, tired of living this a way.



Oh Lord, I'm tired, tired of living this a way...
