I'M Steeling Memories- Pedal Steel Guitar
Please don't take
What's not yours
Because I need it
And don't think
Your welcome to
What is mine
I've worked hard
Earning all
These sad feelings
And I'm steeling memories and time
I'm steeling memories
One string at a time
It cries out with heartache
It bends and it whines
This old Emmons pulls
And it pushes real fine
So please take your memories
Cause I'm steeling mine
Tomorrow she said
I would be
Over her
That pain goes away
And So does the hurt
But I know
the reason
I love rhythms and rhyme
It's because
I steel memories
One note at a time
I'm steeling memories
One string at a time
It cries out with heartache
It bends and it whines
My old Marlen pulls
and releases with time
The heartaches and sadness
That still live
In my mind
I sat down at my 10 string
Grabbed my pedal and slide
I used my many heartaches
To make each of them cry
So please don't you steal
What I feel is mine
As I pour out the heartache
On that E9
Don't feel for my heartache
Cause I'll be just fine
I'm steeling memories.....
Cause you'll never be mine...
