East Texas Blues |
Well I met a woman in East Texas |
She’d been left by herself alone |
Well I met a woman in East Texas |
She’d been left by herself alone |
And I was stranded out in the country where |
I was barely known |
She fell for me a lonesome stranger |
Standing in the drizzling rain |
She fell for me a lonesome stranger |
Standing in the drizzling rain |
She said you can stay with me baby |
Though I don’t even know your name |
Just don’t tell me you love me |
Cause to tell a lie is a sin |
Just don’t tell me you love me |
Cause to tell a lie is a sin |
But please lay down beside me honey |
Cause tonight I need a friend |
She said I care for you daddy |
But I don’t love no man more than myself |
She said I care for you daddy |
But I don’t love no man more than myself |
But I got a mind to care |
And a heart to love just like anyone else |
Well the wolves howl till midnight |
And the wild dogs moan for days |
Yeah the wolves howl till midnight |
And the wild dogs moan for days |
The man in the moon looked down on us |
But he didn’t have a thing to say |
