In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox
With the best of country music, old and new
You can hear your five selections for a quarter
And somebody else's songs when yours are through
I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter
And my friends around to help me ease the pain
'Til some button pushin' cowboy plays that lovesong
And here I am just missing you again
Chorus:
Please mr. please, don't play be-17
It was our song, it was his song, but it's over
Please mr. please, if you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again
If I had a dime for every time I held you
Though you're far away, you've been so close to me
I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville
Maybe even in the state of Tennessee
But I guess I'd better get myself together
'cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind
Just a note that said "I'm sorry", by your picture
And a song that's weighing heavy on my mind
(chorus)
