"A Hard Act To Follow" lyrics - GEORGE JONES

I can see you're advertising
'Cause you keep giving me the eye
It won't take long to tell you in my song
I wanna be with you tonight
I've been badly needing bookings
And you're the best contact I've known
And I'm gonna be A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW
If you keep a-coming-on

[Chorus:]
I'm gonna be A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW
Since you have set the stage
Take me in, unlock the door
And let the tiger out of his cage
I don't need no dress rehearsal

'Cause my heart don't beat that strong
But I'm gonna be A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW
If you keep a-coming-on

Well the introductions over
We've got our hearts in tune
Let me know before we start the show
Am I falling in love too soon
I've got a heart 'bout as big as Texas
About the size of the Astrodome
And I'm gonna be A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW
If you keep a-coming-on
