Bright Lights And Country Music:Ricky Nelson. Album - Bright Lights And Country Music - on DECCA Records in 1966. INTRO: #1. I won’t stay home and cry tonight like all the nights before. I just learned that I don’t really need you anymore. I found a little place downtown where guys like me can go. And they’ve got bright lights and country music. CHORUS: Bright lights and country music a bottle and a glass. Soon I’ll be forgetting that there ever was a past. And when everybody asks me what helped me forget so fast. I’ll say those bright lights and country music. INTERLUDE: #2. A table by the bandstand a bottle filled with wine. Honky-tonks were made for men with women on their minds. And nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine. Quite like those bright lights and country music. CHORUS: Bright lights and country music a bottle and a glass. Soon I’ll be forgetting that there ever was a past. And when everybody asks me what helped me forget so fast. I’ll say those bright lights and country music. OUTRO: I love those bright lights and country music. A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
