Blame It On Kristofferson Lyrics

I was only 16 when I heard that melody
And heard those words about a young man who was almost just like me
On a sunday mornin' sidewalk
He was feelin' all alone
I had never been that far from home
But not for long
Blame it on Kristofferson

He changed my life forever
With every word he wrote
He sang with rhymes and ramble
And they hit me like a toke

So I headed off with my guitar
To Nashville Tennessee
With a promise that I'd always be
What I'd become
Blame it on Kristofferson

[Chorus]
I've been blessed to bring a smile to a few folks with my songs
Bring a tear to someone's eye and hear them sing along
Sometimes I start hating every word I've ever written Thinkin' I ain't ever livin' up to sunday mornin' comin' down at all
Blame it on Kristofferson
So here's to Johnny Cash in 1970
That tv show where i first heard those words that spoke to me
Of a sunday morning sidewalk
And a young man all alone
I had never been that far from home
But not for long
Blame it on Kristofferson

[Chorus]
I've been blessed to bring a smile to a few folks with my songs
Bring a tear to someone's eye and hear them sing along
Sometimes I start hating every word I've ever written
Thinkin' I ain't ever livin' up to sunday mornin' comin' down at all
Blame it on Kristofferson
Blame it on Kristofferson
