waylon jennings & willie nelson - i could write a book about you lyrics
[chorus:]
well, i know you like a brother
and i know you as well
there’s some things we could talk about
some things we’d never tell
a few things in particular, an episode or two
i could write a book about you
[verse 1:]
(now listen to this)
big betty wore a lot of make-up. didn’t she sweat a lot?
the maybelline ran like a river whenever she got hot
last time i saw betty, as best as i can recall
you were ridin’ her piggyback down that motel hall
(hey, wait a minute! that ain’t true)
that’s not the way i remember it
you’re lying like a rug on the floor
the only betty that i can remember
i remember was yours
(sure!)
and since you brought up the subject
let’s talk about your taste in art
the windows and walls and the ceilings and floors
you mighta got a little too dark
and there’s a motel out in fresno
where neither one of us can go back
you had a thing about yellow and green
so you painted the whole room black
that ain’t the way i remember it
seems like i had a little help
you weren’t along just for the ride
you hit a few strokes yourself
[chorus]
[outro:]
(but you don’t have to worry. i ain’t gonna do it, waylon)
(i hope not!)
i could write a book about you
