Sad One Comin' On (A Song For George Jones) Lyrics

This worn out old six string, has sure been a good friend
It's never let me down, when my hearts on the mend
It's always willing, to play one more song
I feel, a sad one, coming on

Some dingy old bar-room, is where he used to turn
Till the bottle was empty, man that whisky, would burn
The life of the party, till his friends were all gone
I feel a sad one comin' on

Oh sing me the sad ones, I don't like the fast ones
Keep pourin' me something real strong
Oh I'm drawn to the blue side
Since the king of broken hearts died
And I feel a sad one comin' on

Oh the love of a woman, it saved Jones' life
He put down the bottle, and he made her his wife
He'd tear your heart out, when he sang a song
And I feel a sad one comin' on

Oh sing me the sad ones, I don't like the fast ones
I can't bear that he's really gone
Oh I'm drawn to the blue side
Since the king of broken hearts died
And I feel a sad one comin' on
Oh I'm drawn to the blue side
Since the king of broken hearts died
And I feel a sad one comin' on
