This Song Is OPEN SOURCE and Free To Cover*
Some folks like to reminisce
Like it’s all just faded bliss
But I remember clear as sin
The night I let the wrong one in
I had a wife, I had a name
I made a vow, I wore the flame
Built a life on Sunday grace
Then tore it down with one embrace
You treated love like it was bait
A game to play, a twist of fate
And I bit down, I took the dare
Now I’m the man who wasn’t there
Reminiscent, that’s what they say
But I don’t smile when I look that way
I’m a cheat, and folks know that
But still they nod, still tip their hat
‘Cause the values country folks once had
Are dead on the mortician’s slab
I sang about truth, I sang about pride
Then lied with rhythm, smiled with stride
The stage don’t ask what’s underneath
Just how you sell the pain and grief
I wore the boots, I played the part
But never gave her back her heart
And now I stand in neon light
A man who lost the will to do what's right
Reminiscent, that’s what they say
But I don’t smile when I look that way
I’m a cheat, and folks know that
But still they nod, still tip their hat
‘Cause the values country folks once had
Are dead on the mortician’s slab
You can dress it up in rhinestone lines
But truth don’t shine, it just declines
And every song I used to sing
Feels like a lie.. a broken wedding ring
Reminiscent, that’s what they say
But I don’t smile when I look that way
I’m a cheat, and folks know that
But still they nod, still tip their hat
‘Cause the values country folks once had
Are dead on the mortician’s slab
I had a vow
I let it slip
Now I just sing
With a whiskey grip
yet I pretend on stage each night
that I am a man who knows wrong from right
so.. pretend on stage each night
that I am a man ...who knows... wrong from right
Reminisce and pretend Reminisce and pretend...
pretend on stage each night
that I am a man ...who knows... wrong.... from.... right....

Songwiter Edwin H. Balder with rights owed by him release this song to the world as: OPEN SOURCE!...Do well with what you will and know I love ya!
