Leroy Lyrics

Jerry Jeff Walker

Billy C.

Well, my woman left me yesterday,
Sure do need this drink
My mind's so damned turned around,
That I can hardly think
I'd like some peace and quiet,
While I drink my booze
Winnin's something I ain't done,
Since I began to lose

Chorus:
Oh please don't play me no more heavies Leroy
I can't take them sad songs anymore
Oh please don't play me no more heavies Leroy
If you do, I'm gonna walk right out the door

Well I had to park my car out back,
My loan's so overdue
By the way where's my credit card that I lent to you?
I'm down to my last dollar,
You keep on playin' them songs
Remindin' me ain't nothin' right,
Since it's been going wrong

Chorus
