I picked last night in Tucson I sang 'em a country song
Missed my plane this morning Lord cause we parted all night long
I'm out here now usin' my thumb tryin' to make it to El Paso
Cause tonight I play at the cabarete they done told it on the radio
To a country singer it's a lonesome road with time hangin' heavy on my hands
If I take a little pleasure and a little bit of love baby that don't makes me all bad
I've been high and I've been low and I've been to San Antone
But the worst by far than I've ever been was when I've been alone
Tomorrow night I'm in Austin I've got some old friends there
Cause there's old Jeff and Willie and Sam and a girl with the long dark hair
To a country singer...
There's one last stop down in Shreveport on this tour of one night stands
And I've got some time but no peace of mind till I'm back on the road again
If my old guitar had learned to talk it'll tell about the things I done
There's a mighty good woman back in big D but never ever let me come home
To a country singer...
If I take a little pleasure and a little bit of love baby that don't makes me all bad
Charley Frank Pride (1934-2020) è stato un leggendario cantante e musicista country statunitense. Nato in Mississippi da una famiglia afroamericana, Pride ha dovuto affrontare la segregazione razziale durante il suo percorso musicale. Dopo aver giocato a baseball professionistico, si è dedicato alla musica country negli anni '60, diventando uno dei primi artisti neri di successo nel genere. La sua voce potente e le sue canzoni emozionanti hanno conquistato un pubblico vasto e variegato. Tra i suoi successi più famosi ci sono "Kiss an Angel Good Mornin'", "All I Have to Offer You (Is Me)" e "Mountain of Love". Pride ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui tre Grammy Awards, ed è stato introdotto nella Country Music Hall of Fame nel 2000. La sua musica ha contribuito a rompere i confini razziali nel country music, aprendo la strada ad altri artisti afroamericani.
