Joe, Don’t Let Your Music Kill You
Tom T. Hall
Joe don't let your music kill ya
It's a thing that supposed to fill ya
It's a thing that supposed to make you happy
Taking pills and drinking whiskey
Picking can be mighty risky
Joe don't let your music
Kill ya nobody cares
That song that you've been singing
It's not what you think
I know you've seen some sunny days
You love your music but you love your life
And there's nothing silent like a grave
Hunger can be killed with a can of beans
Don't let 'em tell you that I'm wrong
You got a good woman and
She's got her dreams
Don't hang your life up for a song
