Loretta Songtext
von Charley Crockett

Oh Loretta she′s a ballroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always 22
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
Loves me like I want her to

Oh, Loretta, won't you say to me
Darling, put your guitar on
Have a little shot of booze
Play a blue and wailing song
My guitar rings a melody
My guitar sings, Loretta′s fine
Long and lazy, brown and free
And I can have her any time


Sweetest at the break of day
Prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
′Least not ′til she's all alone
Loretta, I won′t be gone long
Keep your dancing slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while
I'm coming home, I′m coming home

Oh Loretta she's a ballroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always 22
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
Loves me like I want her to

Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
