lyrics

It’s a beautiful day
Birds are chirping away
But I can’t find a reason to smile
Not a cloud in the sky
Has a worry but I
Got them old town blues

Then I put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on
I put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on

Tried to run but instead
He got stuck in my head
And I can’t find a way to escape
On the town painted green
These old bars ain’t my scene
And I’m on my own again

So I put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on
I put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on

So tell me what to do, what to say, who to be, my dear
Cause it’s a deep dark purple haze I fall down into when you’re not near

Gotta put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on
Gotta put my red soul record
My red soul record
My red soul record on

I gotta find that diamond love
Leave them behind just because
It’s the easier path to take
Poured it all on the dirt brown floor
Ain’t gonna do this anymore
Oh no

Cause it’s rags to riches, ashes to ashes to dust
I’m putting all my elbow grease into getting rid of all of this rust

Go put your red soul record
Your red soul record
Your red soul record on
Go put your red soul record
Your red soul record
Your red soul record on
