Spotlight Lyrics - David Allan Coe

I can't see nothing but spotlights spotlights see nothing but me 

All of my music is lonely yeah all of my heartaches were free 

Don't waste your time or your flash bulbs too many heroes are dead 

You like to live in the city yeah I like to live in my head 

Somebody shoot out that spotlight spotlights ain't nothing but jive 

Roll me a smoke and give me some coke treat me like I am alive 

Tell all the ladies I'm single tell Lone Star beer that I'm dry 

Everyone's lying bout livin' everyone's livin' a lie 

I spend my nighttime's in mourning I spend my morning's alone 

You spent your your money to see me tonight yeah I spent all mine gettin' stoned 

Now that they're both kinda busted doesn't it seem kinda strange 

That I lay down knowing we're two of a kind you'll leave here knowing my name 

Somebody shoot out that spotlight spotlights ain't nothing but jive 

Roll me a smoke and give me some coke treat me like I am alive 

Tell all the ladies I'm single tell Lone Star beer that I'm dry 

Everyone's lying bout livin' everyone's livin' a lie
