Brand New Goodbye Song Lyrics

Waylon Jennings

Verse 1:
Baby go down to the drug store and buy me a guitar string Be sure to wear your coat girl 'cause it might rain
Honey you know that rain, is bad for my guitar string

Chorus:
Put on your warm coat,honey, it's gonna be cold tonight
Put on the one that's warm and long
Cause you're just before hearing a brand new goodbye song

Verse 2:
Baby, I've tried your doctors they just couldn't make me well
The higher I tried to climb the farther I fell
I guess it must have blew my mind, sniffing the fumes of hell

Chorus.

Verse 3:
Baby throw away my pillow,just before you turn the light All you'll have next to you now will be the night
I'll be somewhere wrong, you'll be somewhere right

Chorus.
