What Are The Lyrics For Willie Got There First (feat. Seth Avett & Scott Avett) By Asleep at the Wheel?
Well it struck me how cold the rain was
But I didn't look for cover at all I just stood there face to face with my love Watching her teardrops fall And as sad as it was, her blue eyes inspired me And switched on a light in my mind And when she was gone, I wrote down a song To claim the moment as mine But Willie got there first Put heartache and heartbreak into a verse Like an alchemist turning his sorrow to gold Lyrics like mapsfor a soul Eloquent truth in a common man's words I had such a good idea for a song But Willie got there first Well the phases and stages of life they were changing And I was sure changing too Rivers of whiskey and bloody Mary mornings Were causing my plans to fall through But when I was down, I met me an angel Flying too close to the ground We rose up together, the victory moved me To make a musical sound But Willie got there first Put falling in love to a beautiful verse Like the brushstrokes of a renaissance master so bold Still lifes of coal, black and gold Breathtaking countryside, landscapes of words I had such a good idea for a song But Willie got there first The rhymes were already written The rhythm laid down by the band The melodies already been brought to life by the piano player's right hand Bobbie, play it pretty. Lead that harp solo in, And Mickey take us home one more time Then let's get on the road again Well I'm crazy for feeling so lonely With my family and so many friends I know how it is with life as with love When one ends, another begins Look, well you must be tougher than leather But tender as a babe in a manger Let's lift up a glass of yesterday's wine And cheers to the red headed stranger Cause Willie got there first Fit God and the devil into the same verse Like a preacher man letting his sermon unfold A tune like a cure for the soul The truth in a cowboy's words I had such a good idea for a song But Willie got there first Willie got there first |
