Lovely Place to Cry

(Earl Montgomery - Tammy Wynette)



I know this house is the finest one around

And we are both respected in our town

But our friends don't know the truth when they drop by

That our house is such a lovely place to cry.



I keep my yard cut as close as it can be

There's no litter laying round for one to see

And I know someday I'll tell this place goodbye

But till then it's sure a lovely place to cry.



You don't need lonely things around you

When you have no love left in you

And when you're already dead before you die

But someday someone will buy this place and be happy if they'll try.



But for us it's been a lovely place to cry.

Yes, for us it's been a lovely place to cry...
