Lyrics Mr. Record Man / Hello Walls / One Day At a Time (Live) - Willie Nelson



Panther Hall ballroom
Long noted as the country and western capital of the great Southwest
Takes great pleasure in bringin' to it's stage, tonight for your pleasure
One of the finest song stylists in contemporary country and western music
Let's make him welcome then, with a great big Texas sized welcome
Willie Nelson
Thank you very much
Before I get started, let me introduce the orchestra to you
Most of you are familiar with 'em already
Not too familiar, I hope
Back here on the drums from San Antonio, Texas
A boy who's very outstanding in his field
And, uh, in fact that's where I found him, he was out standing in a field
He's very, uh, talented, he's a good writer, a good singer
He's gonna be on of the big names in the country music business before very long
A nice hand, if you will, for Mr. Johhny Bush
And over here on my extreme left
We have John Birch, no that's not right
No, we have one of the very best entertainers, musicians, singers
That's ever graced the bandstand anywhere, of any club or stage
And I'm very honored to have him with the Willie Nelson show
Would you make welcome none other than Mr. Wade Ray
Just between you and me he's a dirty old man, but we're not...
Mr. Record Man, I'm looking for a song I heard today
There was someone blue singin' about someone who went away
Just like me his heart was yearnin' for a love that used to be
It's a lonely song about a lonely man
Like me
There was something about a love that didn't treat him right
And he'd wake from troubled sleep and cry her name at night
Mr. Record Man, get this record for me, won't you please?
It's a lonely song about a lonely man
Like me
I was drivin' down the highway with the radio turned on
And the man that I heard singing sounds so blue and all alone
As I listen to his lonely song I wonder could it be?
Could there somewhere be another lonely man
Like me?
There was something about a love that didn't treat him right
And he'd wake from troubled sleep and cry her name at night
Mr. Record Man, get this record for me, won't you please?
It's a lonely song about a lonely man
Like me
Hello, walls
How'd things go for you today?
Don't you miss her?
Since she up and walked away
And I'll bet you dread
To spend another lonely night with me
But, lonely walls, I'll keep you company
Hello, window
Well, I see that you're still here
Aren't you lonely?
Since our darlin' disappeared
Well, look here
Is that a teardrop in the corner of your pane?
Now don't you try to tell me that it's rain
She went away
And left us all alone
The way she planned
Guess we'll have to learn to get along
Without her if we can
Hello, ceiling
I'm gonna stare at you a while
You know I can't sleep
So won't you bear with me a while?
We've gotta all stick together
Or else I'll lose my mind
I got a feelin' she'll be gone a long, long time
I live one day at a time
I dream one dream at a time
Yesterday's dead and tomorrow is blind
And I live one day at a time
Guess that you're surprised to see me back at home
But you know how much that I miss you when I'm gone
But don't ask how long I plan to stay
It never crossed my mind
'Cause I live one day at a time
See that sparrow fly across the cloudy sky
Searchin' for a patch of sunlight
So am I
Wish I didn't have to follow
And perhaps I won't in time
But I live one day at a time
I live one day at a time
I dream one dream at a time
Yesterday's dead and tomorrow is blind
And I live one day at a time
I live one day at a time
