Sing One for Sisiter
by Robert Earl Keen Jr.

D A7 G A7 D
Summer Sunday evenings around the old homeplace
G D A7
I would play my guitar sister`d sing along
D A7 G A7 D
Sister`s smile would always light up my daddy`s face
G D A7 D
When they`d get to dancing, they`d dance all night `till dawn


CHORUS:
G D
I would sing one for sister
G D
Play for Papa
G D
Moan one for Mama
A7 D
and I`d cry one for you


Mama liked the slow one`s. She`d shuffle `cross the floor
Sister liked the fast one`s Lord she could step so high
I could see my Daddy dancing til he could dance no more
When I`d play a sad song you would start to cry

Chorus:

Break:

Now its just me and this old guitar I`ve no place to call my own
Mama and Papa have passed away, sister`s settled down
You ran off and left me to live here all alone
Now all I play is sad old songs since your leavin` town

Chorus (X2):
