The steel guitar played I met her   And it played the night I lost her   Yes you drove her to another   With your sweet Hawaiian chimes   I know your sorry, but it's too late now   And I know you meant no harm   But the waltz that you were playin'   Put her in another's arms       Cry steel guitar, cry on   Your crying because you know she is gone   Gone with another and I'm all alone   So cry steel guitar, cry on.       Cry steel guitar, cry on   You're cryin' because you know she is gone   Gone with another and I'm all alone   Cry steel guitar, cry on
