EACH NIGHT AT NINE

Ernest Tubb – 1945, 1965
A thousand miles dear a thousand more
Across the water across the shore
I'll say a prayer dear for your and mine
Please think of me dear each night at nine
I hold your picture close to my heart
It takes your place dear while we're apart
Helps remind me that you're still mine
To feel your nearness each night at nine
Instrumentals - guitar & steel
The bugle's playing out goes the light
Gee but it's lonely these Army nights
Please tell kiddies I'm doing fine
Give them my love dear each night at nine
A thousand miles dear a thousand more
Across the water across the shore
I'll say a prayer dear for your and mine
Please think of me dear each night at nine
