Dwight Yoakam – Sad Side Of Town

[ with Buck Owens ]

We’ve agreed not to mention any memories or share a single passing thought

That’s just better for all concerned is what we’ve found

When you’re living on the sad side of town

There’s always hope but we don’t ever let it show

Cause hopes start out real small but how they just grow

And just like dreams are better left alone is what we’ve found

When you’re living on the sad side of town

Please never bring up how she used to laugh at night

Would smell so sweet and giggle when I squeezed her tight

If you can put a stop to that there’s a chance you might

Fit in here well enough to try this style of life

[ steel ]

That’s just better for all concerned is what we’ve found

When you’re living on the sad side of town
