Once I had a girlfriend, she loved to hear me sing But I left her in Nashville, flew west on a silver plane
My family can't kid me anymore They never really liked my songs before Now I'm all grown up and I'm a lonely man And there's no one to sing for but the band
No there's no one to sing for but the band They always say I'm singin' grand But if you listen close you'll understand Why there's no one to sing for but the band
I had a friend in Houston, thought I was somethin' else She moved on to another town in-spite of the way she felt
My family can't kid me anymore They never really liked my songs before Now I'm all grown up I'm a full grown lonely man And there's no one to sing for but the band
No there's no one to sing for but the band They always say I'm doin' grand But if you listen close you'll understand Why there's no one to sing for but the band
No there's no one to sing for but the band They always say I'm singin' grand But if you listen close you'll understand Why there's no one to sing for but the band.
