Leon Russell
Stay Away from Sad Songs
[Verse 1]
Well I'm living out on the highway
With a new girl every day
I guess I've seen it all before
Except the one that I met today
She got me wantin' babies
And breakfast in the morning
With a warm and friendly feeling
I guess I'm gonna have to

[Chorus]
Stay away from sad songs
I sing the old song and the new
But when I sing my love song
I sing my songs to you

[Verse 2]
I guess I'll send a few lines
To the ones along the away
To the ones that drove me crazy
And the one that got away
To the ones that really loved me
And the ones that didn't care
The ones that took me for a ride
That didn't go nowhere
[Chorus]
Made me sing a sad song
I sang the old songs and the new
But when I sing my love song
Ooh-ooh I always sing to you, yeah

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]
It's strange how real love happens
After all this time has passed
The only thing that I really need
Is in your arms at last
I don't need to be on the lookout
For a new love every day
This restless feeling's finally gone
This time I'm gonna have to

[Chorus]
Stay away from sad song
I sing the old songs and the new
But when I sing my love songs
I'll sing my song to you

[Verse 4]
I guess I'll send a few lines
To the ones along the away
The ones that drove me crazy
And the one that got away
The ones that really loved me
And the ones that didn't care
The ones that took me for a ride
That didn't go nowhere
[Outro]
Made me sing a sad song
Made me sing a sad song
Made me sing a sad, sad, sad song
