Dave Dudley - Singing Away Lyrics

The poundin' of the big bustyres in a hot tarline I gotta play another matinee

This old guitar's gettin' worn but not as worn as me but I just keep on singing away

You should understand that all us picking Nashville cats are tired

And we're thinkin' bout a love of yesterday

Well that'll keep us goin' for another show or two and I'll just keep on singing away

Played a show last night in Tuscon Arizona the one tonight's about three days away

If I ever get back home I bet the kids won't know me

Here comes Mr Daddy hear they'll say



Spent too many hours with those good ol' friends of mine

Could be late for that show we're gonna play

If my head will let me make it I'll make it through the night

And I'll just keep on singing away

[ guitar ]

Played a show last night in Tuscon Arizona...



I'd give a hundred dollars for a homecooked meal

If I make it back I think I'm gonna stay

That's what my mind keeps thinking but I know that won't change

And I'll just keep on singing away

How about that Toronto to Houston to Chicago trip in that order

I know gets to be some sorta drag but we keep at it

Imagine that seems like you're goin' to bed at 3:45

And gettin' up at quarter to four never changes
