Vince Gill - Sad One Comin' On (A Song for George Jones)
Written by:Vince Gill
This worn out old six string has sure been a good friend
It's never let me down when my heart's on the mend
It's always willing to play one more song
I feel a sad one coming on
Some dingy old barroom 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
Oh 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
Oh he'd tear your heart out when he sang a song
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
