Lyrics
<p>Play that Sad Song<br />Verse 1<br /><br />It's a long awaited weekend<br />Throw my troubles and my problems<br />So high into the wind<br />I'll gather up my friends<br />We'll go camping by the creek<br />Figure out the tents<br />Forget about the week<br />Forget the need to sleep<br /><br />We'll sit around the fire<br />laughing, telling jokes<br />nothing like a campfire<br />to chase your fears with smoke<br />I'll grab my old guitar<br />and they'll say<br /><br />Chorus<br /><br />Play that sad song <br />that puts tears into our eyes<br />play that sad song<br />that makes us wanna cry<br />they said<br />Play that sad song <br />that puts tears into our eyes<br />play that sad song<br />that makes us wanna cry<br />We want to<br />Hear that sad song <br />that puts tears into our eyes<br />play that sad song<br />that makes us wanna cry<br />We need to<br />Feel that sad song <br />that puts tears into our eyes<br />play that sad song<br /><br />Verse 2<br /><br />It seems to be a habit<br />that everyone displays<br />It doesn't matter what<br />We need to find a way<br />For feeling kinda blue<br />Even if your rich<br />For feeling kinda blue<br />though you're never feelin sick<br />You may be young and happy<br />have the world all figured out<br />Everything you see<br />Is the way it needs to be<br />Yet when it's time to hear a song <br />you'll say<br /><br />Chorus<br /><br />Play for us that sad song<br />We wanna hear that sad song <br />The song that puts tears in our eyes<br />Play for us that sad song<br />We wanna hear that sad song <br />The song that makes us wanna cry<br /><br /><br /></p>
