listen, they're playing my song

Singer:gene watson

down the street a baby just cried

when he woke up all alone

a train's leavin' town and that lonesome old sound

is chilling me right to the bone

a song is playing i can barely hear

about a love that's gone wrong

the freezing rain on my window pane

listen they're playing my song

taps being played by a soldier's grave

so sad it torments your soul

just listen to that north wind moan

tonight it's so dark and cold

somewhere a siren cuts through the night

sounds like a whole world's gone wrong

thunder just warned but it's coming a storm

listen they're playing my song
