Our Private Life George Jones

[Verse 1]
Well you just picked up the latest issue
Hot out of Nashville
And you can't wait to read the latest news
All about the big stars and their reckless way of living
Who got drunk last week and who got sued
No, you can't wait to read about someone not showing up
Or shindig number two with ole Saint Lou
And you're all excited, all up-tight about our private lives
We'll give it up for people just like you

[Verse 2]
Now you're reading now how so-and-so
Just left his wife and children
And you can't understand why he up and packed
And on the next page, you see where he's working in Milwaukee
And the girl that joined his group is really stacked
Now right away you know just why the whole thing happened
And you're on your way to spread the latest news
Well that's one more reason why
We don't have a bit of private life
'Cause we give it up for people just like you
But we're always glad you want to read about us
And the things you read may make you want to cuss
But we don't mind it at all about you knowing what we do
'Cause we gladly gave up privacy for you
