Testo Turnin' Off a Memory - Johnny Paycheck feat. Merle Haggard
Testo della canzone Turnin' Off a Memory (Johnny Paycheck feat. Merle Haggard), tratta dall'album Mr. Hag Told My Story
As I record this album, you know
I still believe in my heart, as I have for years
And Merle Haggard's, one of the greatest
When it comes to writing a song, and singing it
If you ever listen to him, real close
Each song paints, like a master painter, now
A perfect picture, of life itself
So, I want to begin this album, with a song
That is a song about something, in your past
Maybe you can't forget, like love
That's called memory
And for those of you, that experience, that feeling out there
Well, I know, Hag wrote this song, for you
You can find me, in a dim light bar
"And she's not looking for you"
If your coldness, should ever turn warm
"You think she's gonna change?"
But the chances, of you, ever changing
She's not gonna change, John
Are as slim, as your two, loving arms
So, I'm turning off, a memory
As quickly, as time, will allow
'Why don't you get off the phone, and have a drink?'
Yes, I'm turning off, this memory
'I'm gonna turn off the bottle, while you turn off, the memory'
And the wine, seems to help me, somehow
"Now you wrote it, Hag, I guess you can play it"
If he's lucky, he'll someday, forget her
"Boy, I'm glad, somebody understood"
When the wine, finally takes full control
'I guarantee you, Hag, it will'
Now, that's not much of a future, to look to
"Did you, but did you"
But I can't stand to see the pain, in his soul
And he's turning off, a memory
As quickly, as time will allow
Yes, he's turning off, a memory
And the wine, seems to help me, somehow
Yes, the wine, seems to help me, somehow
Yes, I'm turning off, a memory
