Tears At The Grand Ole Opry
Wanda Jackson · Four Classic Albums [2012]
Everyone will be happy everybody but me
Tonight I'll be there by myself I won't be with somebody else
Cause the one that I love has been stolen away
Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight
And every Saturday night bitter tears I will fight
All the songs that I will hear will just bring sadness to my ear
Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight
[ fiddle - guitar ]
Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight
This old heart can't believe that you're gone from sight
There'll be no more joy and songs for me you were the only one
And there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight
