Del Reeves - On The Back Row Lyrics

Here I sit on the back row in a church down the street

Not far from the place where we used to meet

And it's finally getting through to me you found the one you love

I'll go back to the place I keep thinking of



It's not a fancy place just a tavern in the lonely part of town

Where lonely people find someone and hope to settle down

But they'll help me afloat I can't understand

And here I sit on the back row while you're with another man

[ organ ]

You'd never dreamed after many years I may still be waiting there

With just a bottle and two glasses right next to your favorite chair

But who knows you might have left him he might even do you wrong

There I sit in a tavern waitin' for you all alone



It's not a fancy place...
