Waco Moon

[Verse 1] Yellow Rose, Waco Moon Quit too late, died too soon Woman with a needle and a silver spoon Holed up singin' the devil's tune Payin' your dues playin' the blues Speedin' your young life away I never will get over what I heard about you First thing, New Year's Day [Verse 2] I can't say I felt so sad The truth is, I think I'm mad At the selfish way you left your dad When you know what a hard luck time he's had Sleepin' through a dream come true You just threw all that talent away I never will get over what I heard about you First thing, New Year's Day [Chorus] Oooh, slippin' away Oooh, New Year's Day [Verse 3] I threw the phone against the wall Fallin' apart when I got the call Went out walkin' with the weight of it all That's when it hit me like a waterfall I'm playin' the blues payin' my dues Speedin' my young life away I never will get over what I heard about you First thing, New Year's Day [Chorus] Oooh, slippin' away Oooh, New Year's Day [Outro] Yellow Rose, Waco Moon Quit too late and you'll died too soon To the bitter end so tried and true Goodbye my friend, we'll be missin' you
