作曲:

From way back here on the bandstand

She looked like a goddess in the lights

At some point in the set she'd turn her face

And glance my way most nights

I'd take a little solo

I'd play for her she'd smile return the favor

I'd make the sweetest love to her

with every semiquaver

There's a sadness in your playing she said

That penetrates my bones

Something in your intonation

something in your tone

Always understated never overblown

My name for you is Sad Trombone

Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone

It seemed like

she'd found the secret key to my soul

And gathered up my broken life

and somehow made me whole

We'd share a room together

my bandmates were all green

And they warned me 'bout some story

in a movie they'd all seen

There's a sadness in your playing she said

That penetrates my bones

Something in your intonation

something in your tone

Always understated never overblown

My name for you is Sad Trombone

Yes my name for you is Sad Trombone

Now when the light goes out

and the music stops

and the curtains close

That's when your heartbeat race

Sadness on your face and you can't take no more

I see you searching for your smile

We haven't seen that in a while

Now when the light goes out

and the music stops and the curtains close

That's Sad Trombone

We never made much money

the ticket counts were light

We'd count the bars

until we reached some hotel for the night

She was my morning coffee

the butter on my toast

'Til she got a better offer from some outfit

on the coast

Oh there's a sadness in my playing now

A desperate cry a moan

Something in my choice of notes

Something in my tone

Sliding to the deepest bass

from a lonely baritone

I guess I'll always be the Sad Trombone

I guess I'll always be the Sad Trombone

It's an old old story and one

you've probably heard

You start out in a major key

then you're down a minor third

Aimlessly sliding sinking like a stone

It doesn't get no deeper than the scraps

that you've been thrown

But some things they just stay with you long

after they have flown

And it always comes back down to the bone

And it always comes back down to the bone

Down to the bone

Down to the bone

Down to the bone

Down to the bone

Down to the bone
