Let Me Be Down

Let me be down
Cause I ain't too proud
Of all of the drunk things I said last night
When you were around

So let me be blue
And I'll sing about you
Let me be tired
Strung out and wired
Waking up just past noon

Cause ol' Willie Nelson
And Hank Williams too
They're up all night long
Singing their songs
About a girl just like you

So let me be sad
Cause it ain't so bad
Pretend to smile
Tell all my friends
You're the best that I had

Like ol' Waylon Jennings
And Mr. John Prine
I hope that she's good
I hope that she's happy
Cause I'm fucking fine

Let me be down
Cause I ain't too proud
Of all of the drunk things I said last night
When you were around
