Aaron Shafer Haiss - Me And Willie Lyrics

Me and Willie Lyrics[Verse 1]
Me and Willie played in a country band
Seven long years together, playin' those one night stands
We used to say the booze and bars were gonna wear him out
Hold on, a song he wrote will tear your heart right out

[Verse 2]
We traveled the northern route from the Great Lakes to Montreal
Hittin' all the honky-tonks, I bet we played them all
Willie played to ease his soul and he drank to easе his mind
I never understood how hе played so good while drinkin' himself half-blind

[Pre-Chorus]
And you wouldn't think a man so weak could be so strong
Take a crowd of rowdy drunks and hush 'em with a song

[Chorus]
And I'd rather be singin' my heart out in a dark and dingy bar
Hittin' those high notes with Willie's sad guitar
And I'd rather be singin' a blues song, singin' sweet and high
Willie standin' right by my side, playin' country slide

[Verse 3]
Me and Willie watched a lot of dreams die young
Plans we made, how quick they fade, fumblin' one by one
Willie never let it bother him, and if he did, it didn't show
Know he had a way of lettin' go and makin' the blue times old

[Pre-Chorus]
And you wouldn't think a man so weak could be so strong
Take the blues right outta you and put 'em in a song

[Chorus]
And I'd rather be singin' my heart out in a dark and dingy bar
Hittin' those high notes with Willie's sad guitar
And I'd rather be singin' a blues song, singin' sweet and high
Willie standin' right by my side, playin' country slide

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I left Willie in a bar in Marietta
Couldn't stand to watch the man I loved drink himself to death
Now, I'm workin' in Ottawa and I'm doin' well, I guess
But the good life don't look so good from behind a desk

[Chorus]
And I'd rather be singin' my heart out in a dark and dingy bar
Hittin' those high notes with Willie's sad guitar
And I'd rather be singin' a blues song, singin' sweet and high
Willie standin' right by my side, playin' country slide
