Lyle Lovett - Loretta lyrics

Oh Loretta, she's my barroom girl Wears them sevens on her sleeve Dances like a diamond shines Tells me lies I love to believe Her age is always twenty-two 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, blonde and free And I can have her any time Oh, sweetest at the break of day Prettiest in the setting sun She don't cry when I can't stay At 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 my barroom girl Wears them sevens on her sleeve Dances like a diamond shines Tells me lies I love to believe Her age is always twenty-two 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
