He walked into |
|
Dusty's Place last night |
|
I said something about that boy ain't right |
|
He drank a half a dozen double shots |
|
Walked to the dancefloor and picked his spot [CHORUS] |
|
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head |
|
Folded his arms across his chest |
|
Slowly started swaying side to side |
|
That's when |
|
I walked up and said are you okay |
|
He had big old tears running down his face |
|
He said not right now buddy can't you see |
|
I'm slow dancing with a memory |
|
I just waited until the song was through |
|
I asked if there was something |
|
I could do |
|
He said not unless you can bring her home |
|
Then 'he stopped loving her today' came on [CHORUS] |
|
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head |
|
Folded his arms across his chest |
|
Slowly started swaying side to side |
|
I walked back to the bar and old dusty said |
|
We oughta throw that fool out on his head |
|
I said why don't you let that poor man be |
|
He's slow dancing with a memory |
|
I hate to see somebody down that low |
|
But that's the wau life is and the way love goes |
|
Someday that just mights be you or me |
|
Slow dancing with a memory |
|
Slow dancing with a memory |
