[Verse] A Last night I wrote some songs With a friend of mine You could say he's a E Legend in my mind E He said "Boy, I can feel your pain Through your whiskey mind "But there's more to writin' songs A Than rhymin' lines" [Chorus] A He said "Memories cost a lot when You don't make 'em Well, when you lose your family, son, E You never really can replace 'em E And that's good for writin' songs If your heart can take 'em Son, memories cost a lot A When you don't make 'em" [Verse] A "Those records on the Wall are cold as ice Hell, writin' what you're livin' E Ain't no good for family life E So don't envy me for What those records say Hell, that ain't nothin' A But my misery on display" [Chorus] A He said "Memories cost a lot When you don't make 'em Well, when you lose your family, son, E You never really can replace 'em E And that's good for writin' songs if Your heart can take 'em Son, memories cost a lot when A You don't make 'em"
