Sweet Music Man

Dolly Parton · The Tour Collection [2008]

(Kenny Rogers)



Sing a song sweet music man

'Cause I won't be there to hold your hand like I used to

I'm through with you

You're a heck of a singer and powerful man.



But you surround yourself with people who demand so little of you

You touched my soul with your beautiful song

You even had me singin' along right with you, you said I need you

Then you changed the words and added harmony

Then you sang the song you had written for me to someone new.



Oh, but nobody sings a love song quite like you do

Oh, and nobody else can make me sing along

Nobody else can make me feel things are right when I know they're wrong

Nobody sings a love song quite like you.



Sing your song sweet music man travel the world with a six piece band

That does for you what you tell 'em to

And you try to stay young but the songs are sung

To so many people who've all begun came back on you.



Sing your song sad music man makin' your living doing one-night stands

They're through with you, they don't need you

You're still a heck of a singer but a broken man

But you'll keep on lookin' for one last fan to sing to.



Oh, and nobody sings a love song quite like you do

Oh, and nobody else can make me sing along

And nobody else can make me feel things are right

When they're wrong with a song nobody sings a love song quite like you.



Sing your song sweet music man I believe in you...
