John Hartford - Tear Stained Monologue - Jonny Cash Show

This is the requested version of John Hartford performing LIVE his classic & rarely seen song: "I've heard that tear stained monologue you do there by the door before you go' enjoy folks... :) Lyrics: Sometimes I get to thinkin, I've passed this way one time in life before Like the rerun of some movie I saw a thousand Saturdays ago And I Get the feeling I know exactly what your gonna say before it happens in each scene I find myself rehearsing for that blackout situation When the punchline reaches out and punches me. I always play the same old part, the good guy gets the girl, I wind up dead. Those rides into the sunset when the credits start to roll are only flashed upon the screen inside my head The show is done, the lights go up, I throw my empty popcorn box away Go back to unreality on rubber legs, I walk into the day Life is never logical, the faces change, the lines all stay the same I know the cues where I came in, the exits, but I can't recall your name So save your breath, don't tell me how it all comes out, somehow I think I know I've heard that tear stained monologue you do there by the door before you go. What makes me take you by the hand and stand around in line one time again And see the same old madness.. , While I ask is this the place where I came in? So save your breath, don't tell me how it all come out, somehow I think I know I've heard that tear stained monologue you do there by the door before you go.
