Ernest Tubb - It's Time To Pay The Fiddler lyrics

Well it's time to pay the fiddler and it's sad to know we've danced it all away

But the one night disappearing leaving nothing but the cold hard light of day

And it's time to start erasin' all the rainbows we've been chasing in our minds

We know there's no way of making other ties on us unravel and unwind

Yes it's time to pay the fiddler and today's the day the first instalment's due

For the rest of all my days I wonder why to make a mismatch me and you

But there's so much to consider like my wife and little children

Will need and want my love just like you do

Now it's time to pay the fiddler but before we pay the fiddler

Let's say to him please play one last final tune

Well it's time to pay the fiddler and this naked sorrow dripping from your eyes

Only stranded and unshamed we've loved each other now we've got to leave it lie

But I can feel my hand a trembling as I search to find a handle on the door

So let's let the fiddler pull his magic bow across our heart strings just once more

Yes it's time to pay the fiddler...
