Joe Nichols Lyrics
When I'm Hurtin' Lyrics
I like a happy song
In loud an smoky place
Sweet Home Alabama
Puts a smile on my face
But if you want my opinion
I can tell you for certain
That I sing a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
Some nights when I walk out
Im sure the crowd can see
Im just not myself
With an up-beat melody
Oh, but I can sell it to you
And youll know that its workin
Cause I sing a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
I have to fall in love and lose
To sing like this for you
Id be out of business
If I didnt have the blues
Theres another glass of heartache
Just behind the curtain
Cause I sing a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
I know you like a fast one
But Im not in the mood
Theres someone in the crowd tonight
With her somebody new
Caushes the reason for these sad songs
But youre in luck for certain
Cause I sing a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
I have to fall in love and lose
To sing like this for you
Wel Id be out of business
If I didnt have the blues
Theres another glass of heartache
Just behind the curtain
Cause I sing a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
Yeah, I sing just a whole lot better
When Im hurtin
