David Allan Coe - Another Pretty Country Song lyrics

I bought this rhinestone suit in California These boots came all the way from Mexico This Cadillac ain't nothing', son You ought to see the greyhound I bought to take my band from show to show Seen my face a thousand times on TV And heard me on your local radio And in your eyes I see the admiration there for me But, son, there's something that ought to know Well, I've got to take a drink to keep from shaken' Motel rooms ain't nothing like a home Money can't make love grow any stronger When you leave your woman home alone She can't raise the children with no daddy She can't love a man that's always gone It takes a whole lot more than pride To keep your feelings locked inside While you sing another pretty country song I've seen your face a thousand times on TV I've heard you on my local radio It's true I took some pills to stay awake, son And this diamond ring I wear is just for show I've got a little cabin in the country When I'm not on the road that's where I go Try and put my feelings down on paper Right or wrong the show has to go on I can cry deep down inside and keep on smiling' While I sing another pretty country song But I've got to take a drink to keep from shaken'
