lyrics

JUST ANOTHER WASHED-UP COUNTRY HERO

There was a time
A once-upon-a-time it was
When I lived in your applause
Upon the stage
And in the incandescent days
Of the AM waves

Just another washed-up country hero
Another ghost inside the radio

But late at night
When I feel you dialing in
I can see myself again
And in your smile
And in the candles of your eyes
I can breathe again a while

Just another washed-up country hero
Another ghost inside the radio
Playing low

Come out and dance
Beneath the limelight of the moon
To that old forgotten tune
Lift up the wine
And lift your voice again in mine
In an almost-perfect rhyme
You’re an old ghost, too

With just another washed-up country hero
Just another ghost inside the radio
Just another washed-up country hero
Just another ghost inside the radio
Playing low
Laying low
