lyrics

Don't want to hear words of cheer
Don't tell me there's a party
Can't you see I'll be staying at home?

When you knocked upon my door
You should have needed nothing more
Than to hear I was playing George jones

If you hear me playing George Jones
Take the hint
Leave me alone

Cause when i play Tender Years
It's not because I'm waiting
For the next good thing to appear

And when I cry Why Baby Why
Rest assured it ain't no lie
Things have gone to pieces around here

If you hear me playing George Jones
Take the hint
Leave me alone

I know you're only trying to help me
With a kind consoling word
But be forewarned the mood I'm in spreads easily

And so it's best for all concerned
To keep your distance till it's turned
From shots of whisky to coffee and cream

And if you hear me playing George Jones
Take the hint
Leave me alone

Take the hint
Leave me alone
