See him there at the table, watch him tear at the label From the bottle that he just drank dry In his mind there's a burning, it took a long time but he? s learning And just look at the teardrops he's cried Everybody knows I love him but his mind is on another And just look at what she's done to his pride And if he should change his mind, give up the music and the wine I'll be standing by to be the next in line I know his favorite song so well and he's happy I can tell Just as long as he can hear the jukebox play So I'll keep playing it loud, I'll spend every dime I have To keep him happy in my own kind of way Everybody knows I love him but his mind is on another And just look at what she's done to his pride And if he should change his mind, give up the music and the wine I'll be standing by to be the next in line Yes, I'll be standing by to be the next in line
