Raffi - Play Melancholy Baby Sweetheart lyrics

As I step in from the sidewalk On a rainy Friday night, The bar sure does look crowded It's just taking from a fight Some folks will come to drink for fun But for most, it isn't so They're in here escaping from their lives In the only way they know Chorus: And I'm singing Cowboy chords to Jukebox clouds On a rainy Friday night Looking for a smile or a tear Thinking may the lord be with you When you're soever once again May your wait one Sunday morning To find a new song to sing 19-year old Nancy Has some bruises to explain She says her old man had been drinking And he beat her up again The time would her handcuff marks If a friend would only listen Nancy says she hopes her man Will have her pregnant by the spring Chorus (Instrumental break) Chorus And over there I hear some words of love And they're turned the words of hate And if you think this place is jumping now Just come back when it gets late And Gus the Waiter has these visions But they're only in his dreams White hair Emily's burdened battler Is bursting at its seams Chorus
