I keep singing them sad sad songs y'all
Sad songs is all I know
I keep singing them sad sad songs
Sad songs is all I know
Has a sweet melody tonight
Anybody can sing it any old time
It touches your heart
Puts you in a groove
And when you sing this song
It'll make your body move
It goes fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
All my life I've been singin' sad songs
Tryin' to get my message to you
But that's the only song I can sing
And when you get through singin'
My message will be to you
It goes fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
It's a lovely song
Sweet music
It's just a line over
It tells a story honey
You got to get the message
It's just a line over
A lovely line oh
A lovely line
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
It has a sweet melody tonight
Anybody can sing it any old time
It touches your heart
Puts you in a groove
And when you sing this song
It'll make your whole body move
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa
