Stay Away From Sad Songs - Leon Russell

Well I’m living out on the highway

With a new girl every day

I guess I’ve seen it all before

Except the one that I met today

She got me wantin' babies

And breakfast in the morning

With a warm and friendly feeling

I guess I’m gonna have to

Stay away from sad songs

I sing the old song and the new

But when I sing my love song

I sing my songs to you

I guess I’ll send a few lines

To the ones along the away

To the ones that drove me crazy

And the one that got away

To the ones that really loved me

And the ones that didn’t care

The ones that took me for a ride

That didn’t go nowhere

Made me sing a sad song

I sang the old songs and the new

But when I sing my love song

Ooh-ooh I always sing to you, yeah

It’s strange how real love happens

After all this time has passed

The only thing that I really need

Is in your arms at last

I don’t need to be on the lookout

For a new love every day

This restless feeling’s finally gone

This time I’m gonna have to

Stay away from sad song

I sing the old songs and the new

But when I sing my love songs

I’ll sing my song to you

I guess I’ll send a few lines

To the ones along the away

The ones that drove me crazy

And the one that got away

The ones that really loved me

And the ones that didn’t care

The ones that took me for a ride

That didn’t go nowhere

Made me sing a sad song

Made me sing a sad song

Made me sing a sad, sad, sad song
