Second Fiddle Lyrics by Buck Owens
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
(Roy Drusky)

I'll play second fiddle to your new love while it lasts
Just like all the others I've played for in the past
Why can't I be a leader and play your leading part?
Why must I always have to play second fiddle in your heart?

Chorus:
Play fiddle play.
Will there never come a day
When I won't have to play the part
Of second fiddle to your heart?

Each time you find a new love, you leave me here to cry
The teardrops tell a story, of a love that just won't die.
Like an early mornin' paper, the news you get just parts
Why must I always have to play second fiddle to your heart?

Chorus:
Play fiddle play.
Will there never come a day
When I won't have to play the part
Of second fiddle to your heart?
(Roy Drusky)      I'll play second fiddle to your new love while it lasts   Just like all the others I've played for in the past   Why can't I be a leader and play your leading part?   Why must I always have to play second fiddle in your heart?      Chorus:   Play fiddle play.   Will there never come a day   When I won't have to play the part   Of second fiddle to your heart?      Each time you find a new love, you leave me here to cry   The teardrops tell a story, of a love that just won't die.   Like an early mornin' paper, the news you get just parts   Why must I always have to play second fiddle to your heart?      Chorus:   Play fiddle play.   Will there never come a day   When I won't have to play the part   Of second fiddle to your heart?
