Lyrics

Steel Guitar Ain't Crying (Caleb J. Montgomery) Now the steel guitar ain't crying anymore The patrons all have wandered through the door And the melody, the one, two three, of a waltz it don't play no more Cause the Steel Guitar Ain't Crying anymore When I was just a boy I remember all those strings The dents and scars and the iron bar And the way it used to sing And I knew right then and there By the way I'd sit and stare The steel would always be a part of me Now the steel guitar ain't crying anymore The patrons all have wandered through the door And the melody the one, two three, of a waltz it don't play no more Cause the Steel Guitar Ain't Crying anymore I don't want the twang of that ol' electric guitar Or the swinging of the strangers in a big honkeytonk bar Give me that old tune that Grandpa used to play With the old crying steel while I'm crying in the rain Now you know if you ask me And I'm sure Hank would agree They don't make the kind of sound They did before Now theres nothin' to do but sing the blues And show myself to the door Cause the Steel Guitar Ain't Crying anymore Now the steel guitar ain't crying anymore The patrons all have wandered through the door And the melody the one, two three, of a waltz it don't play no more Cause the Steel Guitar Ain't Crying anymore I don't want the twang of that ol' electric guitar Or the swinging of the strangers in a big honkeytonk bar Give me that old tune that Grandpa used to play With the old crying steel while I'm crying in the rain
