Текст Joe Nichols — Man With A Memory

[Verse 1]
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 ’round a glass

[Chorus]
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 living for the love
And the love doesn’t last
You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past

[Verse 2]
Bartender turns the TV down
Cranks that old 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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Oh, we’ve all got something
We’ve got to get around
Now and then, you get the chance
To help the lost get found
Stacking chairs and sweeping up
He can’t help a little smile

[Chorus]
Thinking ’bout the man with a memory
And the woman with a past
Lost souls on life’s highway
Forever looking back
When you’re living for the love
And the love doesn’t last
You get a man with a memory
A woman with a past
