  • Try Not To Look So Pretty by Dwight Yoakam
    Lyrics:
    Try not to look so pretty
    The next time that we meet
    Please don't look so pretty
    And I won't act so weak
    Please don't look so pretty
    You're lovely but it's just cruel
    Try not to look so pretty
    And I'll try not to be your fool
    You walk in and steal my mind
    But who gave you the right
    To treat me like some useless thought
    You know away each night
    Please don't look so pretty
    You're lovely but it's just cruel
    Try not to look so pretty
    And I'll try not to be your fool
    You make it hard on me
    But I'll try to pretend
    That you're just a lovesick dream
    That always has to end
    Please don't look so pretty
    You're lovely but it's just cruel
    Try not to look so pretty
    And I'll try not to be your fool

    True country. Country isn't country anymore. All the extravagant shows when Dwight can just stand at the mic and sing as most of the real country singers can. He doesn't need all those frills.

    1:14 When Dwight hits that descending line and goes down a half-step. It's just magical. Props to Dwight or the songwriter or producer or whoever it was that came up with that brilliant idea. It makes the whole song.

    This guy holds country sacrosanct. He can rock with the best, does a fantastic job on country rock yet, when it comes to the real heart of country, he's right there with all the country greats who have gone before. This song (and others) is proof of that. Kudos Dwight. That, from one who isn't "in to" country. But was raised on it.

    Man...been listening to Dwight for many years. I loved a beautiful Lady with all that i had in me. Wasn't enough. I tried to drown my feelings, never was enough alcohol. Played some of these songs so many times. Know the words by heart now. We lived in a small SD town, so, yeah. It was exactly: Try not to look so pretty...i lived thru it. But all these years later, these songs can shoot the remembrance of that pain. Instantly. Gotta admire someone who can do that to You w their words n music.
