I keep singing them sad, sad songs, y'all
Sad songs is all I know
I keep singing them sad, sad songs, y'all 
Sad songs are all I know 

It has a sweet melody tonight
Anybody can sing it any old time
What in your heart puts you in a groove 
And when you sing this song 
It'll make you're whole body move, it goes

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn
Our turn
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn, now

All my life I've been singing them sad songs 
Trying to get my message to you
But this is the only song, y'all, I can sing 
And when I get to singing my message to you, it goes 

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn, now

It's a lovely song, y'all
Sweet music, honey
It's just a line, oh but
It tells a story, baby
You got to get the message
A stone message, honey
A lovely line, baby
I'm worried in mind, watch me

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn
Everybody's turn, everybody
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, one more time
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, worried alive, y'all
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
