Callie McCullough - Three Quarter Time Lyrics

I don't fit in here and I don't bother trying
This so called new country ain't walking the line
Would anyone notice if they heard Patsy Cline
Singing old sad songs in three quarter time
Playing on Broadway is a hell of a grind
Ballads and barstools have this heart of mine
They pay me in whiskey but I ain't made a dime
From Singing old sad songs in ¾ time
They called me a star, they told me to sign
They said to get ready for a hell of a ride
They gave me their songs and a piece of me died
'Cause I was born to sing sad songs in three quarter time
They called me crazy said I'm out of my mind
Ballads and barstools have this heart of mine
They pay me in whiskey but I ain't made a dime
From Singing old sad songs in three quarter time
I can't help looking ahead to a time
When we go back to twin fiddles and the steel guitar cry
But I sit with my whiskey wondering why
Nobody sings sad songs in three quarter time
The high lonesome spirit is well and alive
'Cause Ballads and barstools have this heart of mine
They pay me in whiskey but I ain't made a dime
From Singing old sad songs in three quarter time
I'm Just Singing old sad songs in three quarter time
