Another Pretty Country Song

David Allan Coe

I bought this rhinestone suit in California

These boots came all the way from Mexico

This Cadillac ain't nothin' son you ought to see the Greyhound

I bought to take my band from show to show

Seen my face a thousand times on TV and heard me on your local radio

And in your eyes I see the admiration there for me

But son there's something that you ought to know



Well I've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'

Motel rooms ain't nothing like a home

Money can't make love grow any stronger when you leave your woman home alone

She can't raise the children with no daddy

She can't love a man that's always gone

It takes a whole lot more than pride to keep your feelings locked inside

While you sing another pretty country song

(Play it Pete Drake)

[ steel ]

(I've seen your face a thousand times on TV I've heard you on my local radio)



It's true I took some pills to stay awake son

And this diamond ring I wear is just for show

I've got a little cabin in the country

When I'm not on the road that's where I go

Try and put my feelings down on paper

Right or wrong the show has to go on

I can cry down deep inside and keep on smilin'

While I sing another pretty country song

But I've got to take a drink to keep from shakin'
