From the recording Presenting Carolina Bluegrass Style
A great tune originally done by the great George Jones and then done by the Byrds. This is Carolina Bluegrass Styles own version of the song, a bit of a mix of both earlier versions.
Lyrics
The jukebox is playing
A honky tonk song
One more I keep saying
And then I'll go home
What good would it do me?
I know what I'll find
An empty bottle a broken heart
And you're still on my mind
The people are laughing
They keep having their fun
While I sit here crying
Over what you have done
My pockets are empty
It's my last drink of wine
An empty bottle a broken heart
And you're still on my mind
'Cause I'm alone and forsaken
So blue I could die
I just sit here drinking
Till the bottle runs dry
To try and forget you
I turn to the wine
An empty bottle, a broken heart
And you're still on my mind
An empty bottle, a broken heart
And you're still on my mind
