Another Pretty Country Song lyrics

Song information

Artist: Del Reeves
Album: Trucker's Paradise

Lyrics

I bought this rhinestone suit in california
These boots came all the way from mexico
And this cadillac ain't nothin' son you should see the greyhound
I bought to take my band from show to show
Oh you've seen my face a thousand times on tv
Or heard me on your local radio
And in your eyes I see the admiration for me
But son there's something that you ought to know

I've got to take a drink to keep from shaking
Oh motel rooms ain't nothing like a home
And 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
[ steel ]
Yes I've got to take a drink to keep from shaking..
While I sing another pretty country song
