Subject: Nothing Sure Looked Good On You by Gene Watson
Garry Wamboldt asked for this one. Here's how I do it.
NOTHING SURE LOOKED GOOD ON YOU
Recorded by: Gene Watson
Submitted by: Thomas Rivers
(VERSE 1)
YOU FOUND YOUR GREENER PASTURES IN A MANSION ON A HILL
WITH A FLASHY FOREIGN CAR TO DRIVE & LOTS OF TIME TO KILL
LORD MY MIND KEEPS ON REMEMBERIN' THE DAYS OF ME & YOU
WHEN WE WERE DOWN TO NOTHIN', NOTHIN' SURE LOOKED GOOD ON YOU
(CHORUS)
YOU SAID YOU NEEDED SIMPLE THINGS THAT I HAD PLENTY OF
& THROUGH THE DAYS OF DARK & RAIN WE COULD ALWAYS LIVE ON LOVE
WITH HIS STYLE OF LIFE HE LURED YOU, & YOU COULD NOT REFUSE
BUT WHEN WE WERE DOWN TO NOTHIN', NOTHIN SURE LOOKED GOOD ON YOU
WHEN YOU HONEYMOONED IN PARIS, IT WAS CARRIED ON THE NEWS
& I HEARD YOU LAUGHED YOUR CARES AWAY, ON A CARRIBEAN CRUISE
YOU WERE ALWAYS ONE FOR DREAMIN', NOW YOUR DREAMS CAN ALL COME TRUE
BUT WHEN WE WERE DOWN TO NOTHIN', NOTHIN' SURE LOOKED GOOD ON YOU
