Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
I keep singing them sad, sad songs, y'all

Sad songs is all I know
I keep singing them sad, sad songs, now
Sad songs is all I know

It has a sweet melody tonight
Anybody can sing it any old time
Touches your heart, puts you in a groove
And when you sing this song
It'll make your whole body move
It goes fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn, our turn
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn, now

All my life I've been singing sad songs
Trying to get my message to you, honey
But it's the only song, y'all, I can sing
And when I get to singing
My message will be to you
It goes fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn, now

It's a lovely song, y'all, sweet music, honey
It's just a line, oh, but it tells a story, baby
You've got to get the message
A stoned message, honey
A lovely line, baby, I'm worried in mind, watch me
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Your turn
Everybody's turn, everybody
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
One more time, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
