OLD RED EYES IS BACK
RED FROM THE
NIGHT BEFORE THE
NIGHT BEFORE
WALKED INTO THE
WRONG BAR WALKED
INTO A DOOR
OLD RED'S IN
TOWN AND SITTING
LATE AT NIGHT
HE DOESN'T MAKE
A SOUND
JUST ADDING TO
THE WRINKLES ON HIS
DEATHLY FROWN
THEY'RE ONLY RED
FROM ALL THE TEARS
THAT I SHOULD'VE SHED
THEY'RE ONLY RED
FROM ALL THE WOMEN
THAT I COULD'VE WED
SO WHEN YOU LOOK
INTO THESE EYES
I HOPE YOU REALIZE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
LISTEN UP OLD RED
YOU NEVER LISTENED
TO A WORD THE
DOCTOR SAID
HE TOLD YOU IF
YOU DRANK ANOTHER
YOU'D BE DEAD
OLD RED EYES IS
BACK HIS SHOULDERS
ACHE ALL OVER AND
HIS BRAIN IS SORE
HE POURS A DRINK
AND LISTENS TO HIS
BODY THAW
THEY'RE ONLY
RED FROM ALL THE
THOUGHTS UNUSED
INSIDE MY HEAD
THEY'RE ONLY
RED FROM ALL THE
THINGS I COULD HAVE
DONE INSTEAD
SO WHEN YOU LOOK
INTO THESE EYES
I HOPE YOU REALIZE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
BLUE IS THE STREET
WITHOUT AN END
RED IS THE COLOR
OF MY HELL
BLUE IS A GREETING
FROM A FRIEND
RED IS THE COLOR
OF FAREWELL
OLD RED HE DIED
AND EVERY SINGLE
LANDLORD IN THE
DISTRICT CRIED
AN EMPTY BOTTLE
OF WHISKEY LAYING
BY HIS SIDE
A LAZY LITTLE
TEAR RUNNING
FROM EACH EYE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
THEY COULD
NEVER BE BLUE
