41. Miss Emily's Picture...John Conlee...makes me cry everytime.

I wake up in the morning is a state of fright

On the wrong side of the bed all night
Clinging to the broken heart - Inside my head
Open my eyes and I move my hand
>From 'round her pillow to the nightstand
And straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed


Go to the office; the work's piled up
pour three fingers bourbon in my coffee cup
Cry on my best friend's shoulder - down the hall
I feel so lonely, when I close the door
I bite my nails and I walk the floor
And straighten Miss Emily's picture on my wall


Look out my window and what do I see, Nothing but pain looking back at me
All that my future means to me,
Is tossing yesterday's love out into the wind
And straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then


I leave my office and I go downtown,
to a little bar we all hang around
Laugh -drink beer -shoot pool - and have a ball
When the laughter stops - and the hurt takes hold
I reach in my pocket for my billfold
And show Miss Emily's picture to them all

I stagger in the house and I slam the door
Scatter my clothes all over the floor
Wishing I could do the same thing in my head
I drink a beer and I eat a bite,
Just before I turn out the light
I straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed

We're gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Josie comes home

When Josie comes home
So good
She's the pride of the neighborhood
She's the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a Roman
With her eyes on fire ...
