SWINGIN’ DOORS

(Written by Jeff Ridler)

Verse

I’VE BEEN CURSED AND I’VE BEEN BLESSED

AND NONE THE WORSE FOR THE WEAR I GUESS

THOUGH THERE’S TIMES, THAT I DON’T KNOW

HOW I SURVICED

SOME BURING CARS AND BAD HEARTBREAKS

AND HARD KNOCKS FROM THE ROADS I TAKE

I GUESS THAT SOMEBODY LIKED ME UP IN THE SKY

CHORUS:

WHILE I WAS SINGIN’ THROUGH THOSE SWINGING DOORS

LIKE I DONE MANY TIMES BEFORE

BUT I WAS JUST OUT THERE TO SEE THE SIGHTS

WHERE THE BEER IS COLD AND THE BAND IS TIGHT

AND THIS GOOD OLE BOY WOULD FEEL JUST RIGHT

WITH A HONKY TONK ANGEL

WATCHING OVER ME TONIGHT

Verse

WELL I’VE BEEN A KING AND I’VE BEEN A CLOWN

SEEN MY CASTLE FALLING DOWN

THERE’S NOT MUCH MORE THAN THAT

THAT I CAN SAY

BUT I ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU’D TAKE ME BACK

IT’S HARD TO FACE THE COLD HARD FACT

I GUESS YOU WERE THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

(CHORUS 2X)

I’D LOVE A HONKY TONK ANGEL

WATCHIN’ OVER ME TONIGHT
