Sweet Lucy |
When we left, it was cold |
Each other’s hands we had to hold |
We was drunk in Tennessee |
She got drunk, as drunk as me |
She run up the hill, she cried and cried |
I run down the other side |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
Police come, they took my wine |
They put us in jail, hundred-dollar fine |
I could hear her cryin' over the wall |
In the women’s detention hall |
I got on the phone, my mama spoke |
«Sorry, son, but your mama’s broke» |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
Wherever I go I get sad |
Seems like sorrow lives in the air |
In the wide-open skies of California |
They have sorrow way out there |
Five gets ya ten that ya don’t get past |
Five gets ya ten that ya better go fast |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
Oh, Harry Hubcaps and Jack the Fluke |
They bought a bottle for Luke |
They was buddies, but they had a fight |
They broke the jukebox, they broke the light |
Big ol' Fluke weigh three-hundred pounds |
Fell on Harry when Harry fell down |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
My old lady says, «Gimme that wine» |
I said, «Honey, quit drinking sometime» |
She said, «Snock, it’s not my fault |
Had to eat my porkchop without no salt» |
She run up the hill, she cried and cried |
I run down the other side |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy |
Ooh, Sweet Lucy, let me go |
