One sweet hello and one sad goodbye
Two empty arms and these lonely nights to cry
tribute to Merle Haggard in a standing ovation

The longer you wait to leave me the longer I'll hurt when you're gone
the lights
On a honkytonk Saturday night.
I played the jukebox, I played some merle haggard,

Thank you thank you Carlton...
(Merle Haggard)

But you'll always be special to me
To you I may never be closer than I am

It's a way of mine to say just what I'm thinking
And to do the things I really
country music has the blues
If it makes you feel better
Blame me if you want to
But I think country music has the blues
Merle Haggard and all those
the best way that they can
You're the only one that you are screwin'
When you put down what you don't understand
I said, I dig Roger Miller, Merle
