Kris Kristofferson - Smokey Put The Sweat On Me lyrics

I've known some women in every state New york city to the golden gate I've lived with some, and buddy, i loved 'em all. (yes, i did) But no one woman had a claim on me 'cause i still had a lotta world to see And i sometimes stagger, but sugar, i seldom fall. Then like a hungry man, i went to louisiana Where the lovin' and the livin' was good Without a care to hide and just as satisfied as i could be. A lotta women and wine and not a tie to bind me And behaving just as cool as i could 'til that long legged, sweet walkin' ravenhaired cajun lookin' Devil put the sweat on me They call her smokey, she's a little bit-a evil Smokey, right as wrong can be. Smokey, she could shake the very devil Smokey put the sweat on me. Oh, my pulse is a beatin' to the clickety clack Of this one-way ride that's gonna take me back And my body's just a-breathin' in that mississippi river smell Well, my feet wasn't ready yet for settling down But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around And the longer i tried to fight it, the harder i fell And like a hungry man, i went to louisiana Where the lovin' and the livin' is good I'll get a brand new bride and be as satisfied as i can be And i won't even mind the world i'm leavin' behind Because i never really thought that i could 'til that long legged, sweet walkin' ravenhaired cajun looking devil Put the sweat on me. They call her smokey, she's a little bit-a evil Smokey, right as wrong can be Smokey, she could shake the very devil Smokey put the sweat on me Smokey put the sweat on me Awww, smokey put the sweat on me.
