(Shorty Long - Dolly Long - Susan Heather)

The steel guitar played the day I met him
And it played the night I lost him
Yes, you drove him to another
With your sweet Hawaiian chimes.

I know your sorry but it's too late now
And I know you meant no harm
But the waltz that you were playin'
Drove him to another's arms.

So cry steel guitar, cry on
You're crying 'cause you do know he is gone
Gone with another and I'm all alone
So cry steel guitar, cry on.

So cry steel guitar, cry on
You're crying 'cause you do know he is gone
Gone with another and I'm all alone
So cry steel guitar, cry on...
