Vernon Oxford - Forgetfulness For Sale Lyrics

I saw a neon invitation flashing red and green temptation
And the sign read we've got whiskey wine and ales
Come and step into our shadow leave outside whatever matters
Tonight we've got forgetfulness for sale

I heard the jukebox saw the dance floor
I said this is my last chance for happiness
For after all all else has failed
So I gave the man my money some woman whispered hone
And I thought I'd found forgetfulness for sale

In the bargain basement of the honky tonk
Where they teach you not to think and for awhile you don't
I laugh and dance and drink and the all the world was gay
Till morning came and all the numbness wore away

Now I'm right back down to hurtin'
So afraid of I've learned for certain
That forgetting you is all to no avail
I'd pay any price their asking
But it's just too big a tasking
No one's got enough forgetfulness for sale

I'd pay any price their asking
But it's just too big a tasking
No one's got enough forgetfulness for sale
