Lyrics She's Long She's Tall - Jimmie Rodgers

She's Long She's Tall

She’s long she’s tall she’s six feet from the ground
She’s long she’s tall she’s six feet from the ground
She’s tailor made Lord she ain’t no hand me down
Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee
She’s got eyes like diamonds and her teeth shine just the same
Well she’s got eyes like diamonds and her teeth shine just the same
She’s got red ruby lips she’s got hair like a horse’s mane
Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee
Everytime I see you woman you always on the street
Everytime I see you you always on the street
You hang out on the corners like the police on his beat
Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee
Hey, hey, hey
Won’t you tell me mama where you stayed last night
Tell me mama where you stayed last night
'Cause your hairs all tangled and your clothes don’t fit you right
Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee
I ain’t gonna tell you no stories, woman I ain’t going to lie
I ain’t gonna tell you no stories, mama I ain’t going to lie
But the day you quit me woman, that’s the day that you die
Oh-di-lay-ee-ay, di-lay-dee-oh, de-lay-ee
I hate see this evening sun go down
Lord I hate to see this evening sun go down
'Cause it makes me think I’m on my last go around
