Testo The Request

When she walked up to the stage
I saw the teardrops in her eyes
She said I'd love it if you'd play
A song or two for me tonight
Everybody's having fun
And I might be the only one
Just been done wrong
Just cheated on
Play me a heartache I can dance to
I'll find a stranger I can hold on to
Tender arms that hold no memories
Might be just the thing I need
Mr keep me off that barstool
Keep me from drinking like a lovesick fool
If there's any mercy in you
Play me a heartache I can dance too

I never saw that girl again
But I still see her face
Every time one walks in
I know what she's gonna say
And it cuts just like a knife Looking in them pretty eyes
And hearing again
Hey honky tonk man

Play me a heartache I can dance to
I'll find a stranger I can hold on to
Tender arms that hold no memories
Might be just the thing I need
Mr keep me off that barstool
Keep me from drinking like a lovesick fool
If there's any mercy in you
Play me a heartache I can dance too

Mr keep me off that barstool
Keep me from drinking like a lovesick fool
If there's any mercy in you
Play me a heartache I can dance too
