Lyrics
Sweet Emmylou,
I blew the dust off you
You're the only one who knows what
I'm going through
And like the hickory wind, he's gone again
Sweet Emmylou
Sweet Emmylou, as the needle runs through you
The way the pain shines through
Well, I know you've been there too
Those sad melodies, oh, how they comfort me
Sweet Emmylou
Well, I hate to bother you again
Last time you helped my poor heart mend
Then he came along
So I put your records all away
Thought happy songs was all
I'd playBut
I was wrong, oh,
I was wrong
Sweet Emmylou, what are we gonna do?
It's only been a week or two
And he's found someone new
Looks like it's gonna be
Another night of you and me
Sweet Emmylou
Well, I hate to bother you again
Last time you helped my poor heart mend
Then he came along
So I put your records all away
Thought happy songs was all
I'd playBut
I was wrong, oh,
I was wrong
Sweet Emmylou, sweet
Emmylou, sweet
Emmylou
I blew the dust off you
You're the only one who knows what
I'm going through
And like the hickory wind, he's gone again
Sweet Emmylou
Sweet Emmylou, as the needle runs through you
The way the pain shines through
Well, I know you've been there too
Those sad melodies, oh, how they comfort me
Sweet Emmylou
Well, I hate to bother you again
Last time you helped my poor heart mend
Then he came along
So I put your records all away
Thought happy songs was all
I'd playBut
I was wrong, oh,
I was wrong
Sweet Emmylou, what are we gonna do?
It's only been a week or two
And he's found someone new
Looks like it's gonna be
Another night of you and me
Sweet Emmylou
Well, I hate to bother you again
Last time you helped my poor heart mend
Then he came along
So I put your records all away
Thought happy songs was all
I'd playBut
I was wrong, oh,
I was wrong
Sweet Emmylou, sweet
Emmylou, sweet
Emmylou
