Preparations To Be Blue Lyrics - Lefty Frizzel

I got out my old teardrops tonight just to try to be on again for size 

I know that I'll be needing them before too long so I'm making preparations to be blue 

Making preparations to be blue getting ready to win I lose you 

Taking an inventor of what's left of me and you so I'm making preparations to be blue 

[ piano ] 

I'm locked in all your memories inside my heart 

One by one I'll take 'em out and we're apart 

Seeing you with him I knew my heartaches were old friends 

So I'm making preparations to be blue 

Making preparations...
