The Jukebox Played Along Lyrics - Gene Watson

Well' I got off work and headed for town to have a few 

Determined I would drown the pain of losing you 

But this couple on the dance floor were droppin' quarters in a slot 

And this heartless thing kept spinnin' old forget-me-nots 

The jukebox played along to my misery in song 

Just as if it felt the pain that I was goin' through 

Oh, it wailed out Crying Time and You Were Always On My Mind 

I was singin' the blues and the jukebox played along 

Well' the more I drank the more it became a mystery 

How the men who wrote these songs wrote then just for me 

They must have hid out in my closet or they had to read my mail 

Lord, I must have heard at least ten dollars worth of Hell 

Oh, the jukebox played along to my misery in song 

Just as if it felt the pain that I was goin' through 

It played I'm Born To Lose and I Can't Stop Loving You 

I was singin' the blues and the jukebox played along
