JohnCash - Be Careful Who You Love (Arthur's Song) lyrics

[Verse 1:] An old guitar picker that run out of liquor So I sat down beside him and bought him a drink Then I bought him another that finally send color Return to his cheeks and he said with the wink Son I worked with Red Foley dear Hank old Lefty And I worked on the Opry back when it was strong But this showbiz you know and it sometimes gets slow So buy me another and I'll sing you a song [Chorus:] Be careful who you love For love can't be untrue Be careful who you love Be sure she loves you too [Verse 2:] Well, you like it I see and that's pleasin' me But son I've wrote hundreds and son you know well I wrote 'em and sold 'em they bought 'em and stole 'em But the paper is cheap they're just tunes what the hell Then he offered to sell me the song he just sang me But I told him that's all is a piece of your soul Keep your song here's some money he said thank you sonny And I heard him sing as I walked out the door [Chorus] [Verse 3:] Well, that was about a year ago friends would you just know It's a big hit that some superstar claims you wrote It seems it'll grins and the money rolls in It's a wonder the lyrics don't stick endest road Now I think of that writer made order and wonder Just how many children he sold in his time And how many men take the gift that God gave them Throw it away for the pretty red wine
