Harlan Howard - Be Careful Who You Love (arthur’s Song) lyrics

BE CAREFUL WHO YOU LOVE (ARTHUR'S SONG)

WRITER HARLAN HOWARD

RECORDED BY HANK WILLIAMS JR. AND BY MARTY STUART

The old guitar picker had run out of liquor

So I sat down beside him and bought him a drink

I bought him another and finally some color

Returned to his cheeks, and he said with a wink

Son, I worked for Red Foley, knew Hank and Old Lefty

I worked on the Opry back when I was strong

But in showbiz you know sometimes it gets slow

So you buy us another and I'll sing you a song

Be careful who you love, for love can be untrue

Be careful who you love, be sure she loves you too
