The Blue Side of Town Songtext
von The Del McCoury Band

Rain on my window, tears in my eyes
Why must I always be the one that′s left to cry?
You say it's over and you don′t want me around
I'm leaving you, baby, for the blue side of town

Well, that's a honky tonk where the lights are low
And they play the sadder songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams on the lost and lonely ones
And there′s a heartbreak hotel, guess I know it well
I hang around the blue side of town

You think you′re lonely, well, that's for sure
Don′t worry, baby, 'cause I′ve been there before
And if you need me, I can't be found
Hiding my heartache on the blue side of town


Well, that′s a honky tonk where the lights are low
And they play the sadder songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams on the lost and lonely ones
And there's a heartbreak hotel, guess I know it well
I hang around the blue side of town

My heart's been aching, you′ve been untrue
It hurts me, baby, but I know just what I′ll do
Pack up my suitcase and I'll see you around
Pack all my troubles to the blue side of town

Well, that′s a honky tonk where the lights are low
They play the sadder songs
Dark shadows fall like broken dreams on the lost and lonely ones
And there's a heartbreak hotel, guess I know it well
I hang around the blue side of town
