Blue Country


Appears On…

If it’s snug it fits
Now are you ready? 
For all of our tomorrows
Now what did you say dear? 
That pissed-off
God and all his angels

I leave my heart on the side
Who needs feelings?
I leave my heart on the side
Oh-no my pretty lady
I leave my heart on the side
Because you won’t be leaving
This blue country heaven, alive

Happy days, they came and went
Those happy-days? 
They were well spent  
Desperate men they do, 
Desperate things, 
Sometimes badly but... 
As far as we kept going, 
Lord knows... 
I was happy as a well-fed dog

I keep my heart on the side
Because who needs feelings?
She’ll leave her heart on the side
Oh-no don’t you do it to me baby
Leave my heart on the side, 
On the side
Cause’ I’m still leaving
This blue country heaven, alive

She won’t be coming back again
Oh-no she won’t
She won’t be coming back again
She won’t be coming back again
And she was my friend
And I’m not leaving
This blue country heaven again

Leave my heart on the side
Please no don’t do it baby
Leave my heart on the side
You know you’ve hurt me
Too many times baby
Leave my heart on the side, 
On the side
So we leave this heaven alive
So we can just leave
This blue country heaven, alive.
