You've seen the way I entertain a crowd I used to pack 'em in from miles around And I played the happy songs that made them smile Why'd you wanna go and change my style Nobody likes sad songs the ones about goodbyes Songs about broken hearts with tears in your eyes Nobody likes sad songs but since you went away Seems like sad songs are all I can play The crowd gets restless and they drift away Lately no one wants to hear me play I try to do the songs I used to do Ah but then I think of you Nobody likes sad songs the ones about goodbyes Songs about broken hearts with tears in your eyes Nobody likes sad songs but since you went away Seems like sad songs are all I can play The boss just told me Ronnie things aren't going well He's gotta let me go I can tell He said what happened son you had it made Why'd you change the way you play Nobody likes sad songs the ones about goodbyes Songs about broken hearts with tears in your eyes Nobody likes sad songs but since you went away Seems like sad songs are all I can play
