He walked into Dusty's Place last night
|
I said something about that boy ain't right
|
He drank a half a dozen double shots
|
Walked to the dancefloor and picked his spot
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head
|
Folded his arms across his chest
|
Slowly started swaying side to side
|
|
That's when I walked up and said are you okay
|
He had big old tears running down his face
|
He said not right now buddy can't you see
|
I'm slow dancing with a memory
|
|
I just waited until the song was through
|
I asked if there was something I could do
|
He said not unless you can bring her home
|
Then 'he stopped loving her today' came on
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
Then he closed his eyes and dropped his head
|
Folded his arms across his chest
|
Slowly started swaying side to side
|
|
I walked back to the bar and old dusty said
|
We oughta throw that fool out on his head
|
I said why don't you let that poor man be
|
He's slow dancing with a memory
|
|
I hate to see somebody down that low
|
But that's the wau life is and the way love goes
|
Someday that just mights be you or me
|
Slow dancing with a memory
|
Slow dancing with a memory
|
