Always Sad

Make the bed, set the table
Sweep the floor then once more
Find yourself something to do
Before the Devil gets his due

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

Won’t drive a car, won’t take the train
Won’t step one foot inside a plane
It’s not those things that’s got you scared
It’s what you’ll find once you get there

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

When something is wrong with you
Like Elmore says “It hurts me too”
I can’t stand to see you cry yourself
To sleep drunk every night

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

Oh Tennessee

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

Always Sad

Make the bed, set the table
Sweep the floor then once more
Find yourself something to do
Before the Devil gets his due

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

Won’t drive a car, won’t take the train
Won’t step one foot inside a plane
It’s not those things that’s got you scared
It’s what you’ll find once you get there

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

When something is wrong with you
Like Elmore says “It hurts me too”
I can’t stand to see you cry yourself
To sleep drunk every night

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

Oh Tennessee

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad

I see you’re always so sad
I see you’re always so sad
