Sing One for Sister

[Verse 1]
Summer Sunday evenings around the old home place
I would play my guitar and Sister'd sing along
Sister's smile could always light up my daddy's face
When they'd get to dancing, they'd dance all night 'til dawn

[Chorus]
And I would sing one for sister
Play one for Papa
Moan one for Mama
And I'd cry one for you

[Verse 2]
Mama liked the slow ones, she'd shuffle 'cross the floor
Sister liked the fast ones, Lord she could step so high
I can see my daddy dancing 'til he could dance no more
But when I'd play a sad song you would start to cry

[Chorus]
And I would sing one for sister
Play one for Papa
Moan one for Mama
And I'd cry one for you

[Verse 3]
Now it's just me and this old guitar, I've no place to call my home
Mama and Papa have passed away, Sister's settled down
You ran off and left me to live here all alone
Now all I play are sad old songs since your leavin' town

[Chorus]
And I will sing one for sister
Play one for Papa
Moan one for Mama
And I'll cry one for you
Yes, I will sing one for sister
Play one for Papa
Moan one for Mama
And I'll cry one for you
