Ernest Tubb

Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music.

In 1948, he was the first singer to record a hit version of "Blue Christmas", a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his mid-1950s version.

I can see you are not happy the way you've been acting
And I think you'd like to be free
I know he's a good man but I know that you can be a whole lot happier with me
In your eyes there's a yearning and inside you're a burning
And I'd like to put out the flame
So let's get together like birds of a feather and we let the love take the blame
But right now I don't think that I can leave him for lately he's been so good to me
And there might be once more chance that things might work out
So let's wait a little longer then we'll see
But the way I can make you forget him cause I'll take you
To places that you've never been
We'll may call the night spots the dim and the bright spots
And then we'll forget where we've been
We'll walk sunny beaches and taste Georgia peaches and swing from Maine to Mexico
If you'll come along we can make life a song and you won't be tied down anymore
But still I don't think that I can leave him for lately he's been so good to me
And there might be once more chance that things might work out
So let's wait a little longer then we'll see yes let's wait a little longer then we'll see
