Man With A Memory

Ol' Johnny's got a heart of gold Ask anyone around here But some nights his eyes are far away And filled with tears Sweet Mary Lou's just as good as they come With a weakness for all the wrong men From the look on her face tonight, she's been wrong again Bartender's thinkin' to himself as he rubs his towel around a gla*s Now there's a man with a memory There's a woman with a past Lost souls on life's highway Forever lookin' back When you're livin' for the love And the love doesn't last You get a man with a memory A woman with a past Bartender turns the TV down Cranks that ol' jukebox up Carefully selects which buttons to push For what each song does C-23 after J-19, it's a tonic for a broken heart A little Stardust in the mix, it's a fine, fine art Dim the lights a notch or two The next round is on the house For the man with a memory And the woman with a past Lost souls on life's highway Forever lookin' back When you're livin' for the love And the love doesn't last You get a man with a memory A woman with a past Oh, we've all got somethin' We've got to get around Now and then you get the chance To help the lost get found Stackin' chairs and sweepin' up He can't help a little smile Thinkin' 'bout the man with a memory And the woman with a past Lost souls on life's highway Forever lookin' back When you're livin' for the love And the love doesn't last You get a man with a memory A woman with a past You get a man with a memory A woman with a past
