McGraw, Tim - Kristofferson Lyrics
I just walked in and you were gone
To your Mama's I suppose
It looks like you won't be back so I thought you ought to know
I found that note you left today it only took you half a page
I'm gonna grab my old guitar take a pencil from the jar and fill in the empty space
[Chorus]
I'm gonna tell you how I feel, straight up genuine and real
Open a bottle of ninety proof and write a song for you like Kristofferson would do
In each line you're gonna hear it's my fault and I miss you
I know it won't be in time it may not even rhyme
But it has to be is true
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
I'm gonna drink this bottle of ninety proof and sing this song for you
Like Kristofferson would do

Nashville has killed country music like we knew it. But they for got this music put Nashville on the map . They want this so called pop country or new country . Pop music is not country . Thank you
Herd !!!
Best song he ever did
This is for all my ex's that I've dated.
Eric the Midget brought me here...
Jordan Govatos same!!
Still love this song
May 2018 with a can of Pabst blue ribbon beer in hand.
Eric The Midget memories and a bottle of Jack!

JANUARY 2018 2:03 P.M.
Fantastic Mr. Fox
THIS IS MY JAM!!!!!
as a kristofferson fan this is the best song about kris im sure when he does pass on theyll be other songs as like george n merle passed
How about some fucking 190 proof! Then I will tell you how I feel lol
This is what Country Music should sound like not the trash on the radio today
i was listening to Gary Stewart today
sang that song for real: fowufa
A friend of mine turned me on to this song about 10 years ago loved it was happy to find it again. gettem guy thank you Susam
Best Tim McGraw song ever!!!
Julie Darling
closest thing to real traditional song he ever cut...Written by by my favorite co writer and friend Anthony Smith.
who does this song even better then Tim...
Happy BIRTHDAY Tim!
my bad, it wasn't written by Kristofferson.
Anthony Smith
excuse me this song was written by K.K.
coming from a family of nothing but music in every generation you know good rythm and harmony and just down right dam good music and this is it, I my self lived this song out but I also moved on and have a better life and a family and wouldn't trade it for nothing well.... yea I'm right nothing lol
one of the few tim mcgraw songs i love
great song love it Tim.
Tim performs this song as well as the writer Kristofferson
Genuine and real....
true country song . steel guitar unbelievable...
Luke Brian
right on don!
I'd much rather listen to this,over any of that bullshit that Luke Bryan or Taylor Swift has out.
At least Taylor writes all of her own songs, Luke is so not country, but that;s just my opinion.
Are you drunk?
Congrats on your 3rd being on the way btw... But check out my link I posted.. It's no biggie but the rumors of her songs being written for her is a big fat lie... American media, what can ya do..
Haha yep.. So I don't get it nor do I care much, but why do you keep calling her a dude? Haha
Steel guitar, piano , and great harmonies. Can't believe McGraw did this . Definitely a country tune . Sad it never got much air play though . Bring Back Country Music......PLEASE.
Damn great drinking song
yeah bud drinkin right now at 9:30am!!!
fuck all u haters, its a great fucking song
Love this song
Great song!
hell I'd drink my life away if I had the money
This is not beer drinking music. Calls for whiskey.
Hell yeah I’m pounding the bourbon right now screaming
This song all by my lonesome . Got a free night from the woman dogs and friends and job and I’m hanging out only with Jimmy Beam. Hell yeah great song okay I’m stopping now . Great song though hell yeah.
Bourbon. I miss my dog though.
This is great ....!!!
At least he is going to do it right...write a song for you like Kristofferson would do.
written by that oh so talented, Anthony Smith!
with help from Reed Nielson
LOVE this song!!! Been there, done that!!! . )
I really liked this song :-)
I agree...
One of his best songs!!!
It sings it like Hank would :D
AGREED!!
i'm not real sure i could pass a field sobriety test after listening to that...but its damn good!!!
this is an awesome song that should be played... it is one of the best songs Tim McGraw has done...
eric the midget is why I'm here
why did he NOT release this song???? Epic.
@RamblinMan1025 ABSOLUTELY, well said.
@MegaDANBOB I have to agree, this is much more country than anything he's had in a while. I love real country(steel guitars, dobros, fiddle), Nashville seems to be going away from that. :(
love dis song so a break up song................
@PapaWoody024
Crown is also good with Budlight,lol.
Check out my page for some good music =)
who could dislike this man oh i know some one with no taste !!!!!!!!
This is an awesome song. Tim has had alot of music hit the airwaves that is good, but I listen to his music and the great stuff never sees any or hardly any airplay. WTG TIm.
@RamblinMan1025 Please don't forget George Jones & Charley Pride!
Damn good drinking song!!!!!!!
@AgentAshcroft I don't, So there.....
@raptorman120 Chesney, who else?
watch dont fish and drive!
kristofferson: in the top 5 most important figures in country songwriting...
this song would have been neat with a video. I could see Tim doing this. with Faith leaving in the back ground. he and Faith do great videos together.
@GymStar2007GSG In all honesty I think this is exactly the type of song hag or waylon would do......i've listened to both of them for years, this is a diamond among coal, in terms of real country in an era of bubblegum pop country and southern rock disguised as country
Hands down... Best Song
You said it partner. You may not be big on Mexican music either. Although, there is that one song that'll get you. That's music. It will never change....
i seriously come on here and listen to this song multiple times a day. everyday. and im not that big on country. this song never gets old.
This is a GREAT TRUE COUNTRY song! I wish Tim would put out more like this!
Great Country song.!! Enough said.
PLAYA SONG...
Tim Magraw best song ever LOVE IT !!!
my favorite back road jam ! 5*
LOVE TIM GREAT SONG FIVE STARS
Thats country music , I cant believe my ears !!!!
FANTASTIC , what a great voice.
Did I see something about a UK tour ???
lets keep hoping for that.
Damn right 90 proof! This song kicks ass!
well tim, you have reached england, what a great song, get your backside over here and tour man we have waited too long. i will do all the ticket sales for nothing man just to see you, i like it, i love it i want some more of it, and yes, i want fries with that, please remember me, everywhere.
Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney,they got good country songs but they don't get air play you got to get the cd to find them. example Shotgun Rider on this cd.
You say HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL-I say George Strait
You say KEVIN JONAS -I say Kenny Chesney
You say SNOOP DOG- Brad Paisley
You say BRITNEY SPEARS- I say Brooks & Dunn
You say SOULJA BOY- John Rich
You say RAP- I say Country!
you say POP- I say Yee Haw.!
92% of teens have turned to pop and rap,

Yeah, you're right. I'm a teen and I love country.
To those who say this isn't real country or barely country---why are you listening? I LOVE THIS SONG and I love everything from Hank to
Elvis, George Jones, Willie Nelson, Waylon....Need I go on?
You have to look at where a person is from to know wheather they are country or not, you take some 20year old black guy from my samll iowa town and compare him to some ass licking rich kid from hollywood and see who is country
Tim....HA tons Of great songs But the song he sings rap Sucks
sorry but if Tim McGraw isn't Country, then country isn't more then fucking shit. He's brilliant. I'm sure there are many mnore great countrysingers but you can't ever say that Tim isn't.
HAHAHAHA!! Pretty good.
i wish he would have done a video for this song. I really like it.
is this a remake of a hank jr song jw?
why cant i see the video
just moved new area Ug
