Jeffrey Scot "Jeff" Tweedy (born August 25, 1967) is an American songwriter, musician and leader of the band Wilco.

(You guys rolling?)
(Yep)

We're playin' that old country waltz
In this empty bar, echoin' off the walls
When I first got the bad news, that you set me free
The band played that old country waltz for me

Well, I loved, and I lost, and I cried
The day that the two of us died
I ain't got no excuses, I just wanna ride
While the band plays that old country waltz

Out the window, the moon shines on the roofs of the cars
While we knocked down tequila and salt, oh-oh
And we're playin' that old country waltz

We're playin' that old country waltz
This empty bar, echoin' off the walls
I ain't got no excuses, just wanna play
That little old country waltz
I ain't got no excuses, I just wanna play
That little old country waltz
That little old country waltz
