George Jones
Brown to Blue
[Intro]
Changed his name from Brown to Blue
[Verse 1]
We stood there in the courthouse room
So close yet far apart
You had brought your lawyer and I brought
A broken heart
The judge pronounced the words the way
You wanted him to do
He changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue
[Chorus]
I couldn't keep my tears from falling
On the courtroom floor
My love, they took away
My rights to love you anymore
My world just seemed to stop
While I stood there so close to you
They changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue
[Verse 2]
Thе judge forgot to tell me
How I'd livе my life alone
What I would do without you
After loving you so long
He didn't seem to care that I am still in love with you
He changed your name from Brown to Jones
And mine from Brown to Blue
[Chorus]
I couldn't keep my tears from falling
On the courtroom floor
My love, they took away
My rights to love you anymore
My world just seemed to stop
While I stood there so close to you
They changed her name from Brown to Jones
And his from Brown to Blue
