—Ernest Tubb
Set up two glasses, Joe
And turn the jukebox low
And let me sit and reminisce
While I pretend that she
Is sittin' here with me
The way she did not long ago
Bridge:
We used to paint the town red
And dance until two
Well, I don't paint it red no more
But I'm paintin' it blue
He's stole her love I know
But he can't stop me, Joe
From having just a dream or two
Set up two glasses, Joe
Maybe you didn't know
But there's a memory in the room
A memory that walks
A memory that talks
And haunts me everywhere I go
Bridge:
I'm just a fool who loves her
And will till I die
From the very first hello
Until the last goodbye
And this is it you know
So fill two glasses, Joe
Then leave me here alone to cry
