Johnny Paycheck – Old Violin
Reached # 21 on the charts of US Hot Country Songs, remaining a total of 22 weeks on the charts On the Canadian RPM Country Singles charts, It reach number # 36. The song was included on the only album that Johnny Paycheck recorded for the Mercury label, Modern Times (Mercury 1986)
Paycheck’s greatest statement of heartbreak describes feeling like the end is near– be it the end of a relationship or of an old fiddle player’s life. I’ve taught this one to a bright young understudy: the late Daryle Singletary.

Johnny Paycheck – Old Violin Lyrics
Tonight I feel like an old violin
Don’t ask me why I feel like this, hell I can’t say
And there I would see an old violin
So one more time, just to be sure
‘Cause there I was seein’ an old violin
