Текст песни Sing 'Cos I Love To - Travis Collins

'Cross the street from Mabel's door
Underneath my Daddy's car port
If you knew at least three chords
You could come and play all night long
Flat top, mandolin or anything with strings
Every single Saturday, you would hear us sing

High and low, rough and sweet
And if you couldn't play you bought something to eat
Folks would come from miles around
It gets in your blood and you can't put it down
When it steals your heart there ain't nothing you can do
There wasn't no money, you just sing 'cos you love to

Daddy would sing "Ring Of Fire"
Someone would play the "Wildwood Flower"
And fiddles moan 'til the wee small hours
You couldn't make the people go home
I'd sit in mumma's lap and she'd rock me to sleep
To "Amazing Grace" with a three-part harmony

High and low, rough and sweet
And if you couldn't play you bought something to eat
Folks they'd come from miles around
It gets in your blood and you can't put it down
When it steals your heart there ain't nothing you can do
There wasn't no money, you just sing 'cos you love to

I carry in my heart, the music of my younger days
I try to remember every time I hit the stage

High and low, rough and sweet
If I wasn't gettin' paid I'd be doin' it for free
Folks they come from miles around
It got in my blood, now I can't put it down
When it steals your heart there ain't nothing you can do
There wasn't no money, you just sing 'cos you love to

I don't sing for the money
I sing 'cos I love to, yeah
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Oh, la la, la-la, la la la-la la la
Yeah, la la, la-la, la la la-la la la
Wooh
