Preparations to Be Blue Songtext
von Lefty Frizzell

I got out my ol′ teardrops tonight
Just to try them on again for size
I know that I'll be needin′ them before too long
So I'm makin' preparations to be blue


Makin′ preparations to be blue
Getting ready for when I lose you
Takin′ inventory of what's left of me and you
So I′m makin' preparations to be blue

I′m lockin' all your memories inside my heart
One by one I′ll take them out when we're apart
Seeing you with him, I knew my heartaches were overdue
So I'm makin′ preparations to be blue

Makin′ preparations to be blue
Getting ready for when I lose you
Takin' inventory of what′s left of me and you
Yes, I'm makin′ preparations to be blue
