Ask the Grand Ole Opry here in Nashville Tennessee Everyone will be happy everybody but me Tonight I'll be there by myself I won't be with somebody else Cause the one that I love has been stolen away Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight And every Saturday night bitter tears I will fight All the songs that I will hear will just bring sadness to my ear Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight ( fiddle - guitar ) Cause there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight This old heart can't believe that you're gone from sight There'll be no more joy and songs for me you were the only one And there'll be tears at the Grand Ole Opry tonight
