The Record
Recorded by Billy Walker
Written by Cindy Walker
[3/4 time]
C G7 C
Around and around goes the record
F C
Around and around and round it spins
F C
I sit alone watching someone I know
G7
Drop a dime in in the jukebox and the record keeps spinning
C G7 C
As around with her new love she dances
F C
Around and around and round and then
F C
Somehow I see that the record’s like me
G7 C
And like all her lovers have been
F C
Once I was high on her heart tray
G7 C
Love was new she was true for a time
F C
But then she grew tired of my loves serenade
G7
And she dropped me like somebody drops the jukebox a dime
C G7 C
Now around and around goes the record
F C
Around and around and round it spins
F C
But soon it will be just an old melody
G7 C
That she won’t give a dime for again
Repeat #3,4
G7 C
Around and around goes the record
G7 C
Around and around goes the record
