Sing One for Sisiter

by Robert Earl Keen Jr.

D A7 G A7 D

Summer Sunday evenings around the old homeplace

G D A7

I would play my guitar sister'd sing along

D A7 G A7 D

Sister's smile would always light up my daddy's face

G D A7 D

When they'd get to dancing, they'd dance all night 'till dawn

CHORUS:

G D

I would sing one for sister

G D

Play for Papa

G D

Moan one for Mama

A7 D

and I'd cry one for you

Mama liked the slow one's. She'd shuffle 'cross the floor

Sister liked the fast one's Lord she could step so high

I could see my Daddy dancing "til he could dance no more

When I'd play a sad song you would start to cry

Chorus:

Break:

Now its just me and this old guitar I've no place to call my own

Mama and Papa have passed away, sister's settled down

You ran off and left me to live here all alone

Now all I play is sad old songs since your leavin' town

Chorus (X2):
