Lyrics

RED EYES TONIGHT
(Copyright 2004 David S. Owen) - ASCAP

Red eyes won't you go to sleep tonight
I can't keep on puttin' up a fight
It's been several days
Since you've been dry
And I don't think I got more tears to cry
Ohh no!

She's been gone, far too long without a call
She may never come back at all
I'm a fool if I can wait
'cause the pain is way too great
Oh I do believe this time she's sealed the fate
Ohh yea!

Red eyes won't you comfort me tonight?
I can't keep puttin' up this fight
It's been several days
Since she's gone away
And I'm back on that 'ol lost highway
Ohh yea!
Ohh yea!

Hard times come knockin' on my door
Knockin' down my only heart and soul
I gave up drinkin' gin, and whiskey just makes me sin
Oh I guess I'm on that wagon train again
Ohh yea!

Red eyes won't you go to sleep tonight
I can't keep puttin' up a fight
It's been several days
Since you've been dry
And I don't think I got more tears to cry
Ohh no!
No, no, no!
No, no!
No, no, no!
No, no!
No, no, no!
