Except For Jessie - Aaron Watson

作词：Aaron Watson/Neal Lowry

作曲：Aaron Watson/Neal Lowry/Aaron Watson/Neal Lowry

Well before she came along

he was lonesome more and mean

It was his way or the high way

But she had a way that he'd never seen

He'd been livin' hard and fast

All his takin' was takin' it's toll

And it took a good

hearted hard headed angel

To help him gain control

He wore his own kind of hat

And for that folks called him an outlaw

Well some even cussed his name

'Cause they couldn't

see the same man she saw

He strummed the beat of a different drum

And his hair was always

long and messy yes it was

And he said he wouldn't change for no one

Except for Jessie

Well she never tried to change him

But she loved him and gave him a son

And that ain't easy

with a honky tonking man

Making music on the run

And lord knows she was a good wife

Always good at finding

ways to right his wrongs

She was the love of his life

The inspiration for his songs

He wore his own kind of hat

And for that folks called him an outlaw

It's some even cussed his name

'Cause they couldn't

see the same man she saw

He strummed the beat of a different drum

And his hair was always long and messy

Yes it was

And he said he wouldn't change for no one

Except for Jessie

Come on boy

He wore his own kind of hat

And for that folks called him an outlaw

It's some even cussed his name

'Cause they couldn't

see the same man she saw

He strummed the beat of a different drum

And his hair was always long and messy

Yes it was

And he said he wouldn't change for no one

Except for Jessie
