Don Williams
Elise
[Verse 1]
Sitting in the barroom ordering another beer
She stepped up on the stage, but nobody wanted to hear
And every word she sang was sweet music to my ears

[Chorus]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say

[Post-Chorus]
It don't matter if the world don't listen
Don't you pay no heed
Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me

[Verse 2]
I sat there at the bar she sang the blues all night
Singing straight from the heart, living every line
I wanna tell you girl, you touched this heart of mine

[Chorus]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
End of the night, well they turned the lights down low
While the band packed up she was standing there ready to go
I walked up and said, hey, I just want to let you know
[Chorus]
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say
Elise, Elise, I believe every word you say

[Post-Chorus]
It don't matter if the world don't listen
Don't you pay no heed
Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me
Elise, Elise, come and sing your song with me
