Ray Wylie Hubbard - The Beauty Way Lyrics

CMy father made a pretty dam good livingPlayin music on the beauty wayHe's gonna die with some money in his pocketWish I could do the same today, little Darlin'"Wish I could do the same todayLil' white kid and a little transister tuned into Wolfman Jack.I picked up a guitar, heard the sirens whisperAnd I never looked back, little Darlin.And I never looked back.I worked the clubs along the San Gradey CrystalPolished a diamond in the rough.By the time I hit LA I was hotter than a pistol.But you never have enough, little DarlinYou never really had enough.I felt the lights on the big, big stages:Fire bunin in my Soul.I've had those nights where my guitar rages.But it's not something you control, little Darlin'It's not something you control.breakRead tail diving for a rat on the sunset.Coyote pickin thru the trash.But I Wish I was lyin' like a cat in the sun instead ofWorkin like a dog for the cash, little Darlin'Workin like a dog for the cashSometimes I wish I could unplug this cord.And my soul and all the money I could saveBut every time I think quit this beauty wayI hear my bones just turning in their gravelittle darlin.bones just twirlin in their grave.Hey hh hhh hey hey heyaaa he ahhh.
