My buddies back home
Make the songs about beer
'Bout drunk Friday nights
Livin' life around here
Those songs about a truck
'Bout the one in the drive
It's got 200,000 miles
And it's runnin' just fine
I write a lot of songs 'bout the good times
But every single time she crosses my mind
She makes the sad songs
'Bout lonely and heartbreak
The ones about my wrongs and all of my mistakes
She doesn't leave and I sing about her bein' gone
But Lord knows that I just can't move on
When I write down the lines
Cry every time
'Cause I know she's never comin' home
Wonder if she even knows
That she makes the sad songs
She makes the sad songs
That dive down on Main
Makes the songs about a bar
That jukebox plays on
For this hurtin' old heart
And the next thing I know
She's creepin' back in
That cryin' steel guitar
Sings her name again
She makes the sad songs
'Bout lonely and heartbreak
The ones about my wrongs and all of my mistakes
She doesn't leave and I sing about her bein' gone
But Lord knows that I just can't move on
When I write down the lines
Cry every time
'Cause I know she's never comin' home
Wonder if she even knows
That she makes the sad songs
She makes the sad songs
I write a lot of songs 'bout the good times
But every single time she crosses my mind
She makes the sad songs
'Bout lonely and heartbreak
The ones about my wrongs and all of my mistakes
She doesn't leave and I sing about her bein' gone
But Lord knows that I just can't move on
When I write down the lines
Cry every time
'Cause I know she's never comin' home
Wonder if she even knows
That she makes the sad songs
She makes the sad songs
She makes the sad songs
She makes the sad songs, oh yeah
