MY FIRST COUNTRY SONG
(Conway Twitty)


Conway Twitty - 1977
Dean Martin (with Conway Twitty) - 1983


MARTIN:
I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurtin' feelin' all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song

I always like to hear those country singers sing
And the way they play those guitars, boy, they sure do make 'em ring
But when they sing the words I can never sing along
I didn't believe things happened that way
I thought our love was here to stay
Till yesterday she walked away and now they're hittin' home

I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurtin' feelin' all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song

TWITTY:
You wrote some words about the good times that you had
And then some lines about losin' your mind and missin' her so bad
And you didn't leave out a thing about the way you done her wrong
MARTIN:
I sang my song to the saddest note that anybody ever wrote
TWITTY:
I think that you just wrote your first country song

MARTIN:
I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurtin' feelin' all night long
I didn't know I loved her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my
TWITTY:
I think that you just wrote your
MARTIN:
I think that I just wrote my first country song
