Not going on the road no more
Let some other fool sing these songs
Let some other guy take my place
I've done this for too long
Done this for too long

I've given them twenty odd years
They took the best years of my life
And all I got to show for all this
Is songs that make you cry
Songs that make you cry

No more sad songs, no more sad songs ... no more

Never again do I want to see
My own children hanging onto me
Tear drops on my collar and sleeve
Daddy don't go, Daddy don't go

How much money do I have to make
How much of this do I have to take
You tell me is it worth the cost
Of what has been lost What has been lost

No more sad songs, no more sad songs

Sing the one about the guy that lost his true love
Play the one about the girl he left behind
Everybody wants to hear the sad ones
Everybody wants to hear the sad ones
And for the life of me I don't know why

What the hell was I thinking of
To ever leave your love
I must have been out of my mind
I must have been blind
Must have been blind

What the hell did I ever do
To deserve to be loved by you
Sweetest music there could ever be
Is standing next to me
Standing next to me

No more sad songs, no more sad songs ... no more
