L.A. County |
She left Dallas for California |
With an old friend at her side |
Well he did not say much |
But one year later |
He’d ask her to be his wife |
And the lights of L.A. County |
They look like diamonds in the sky |
When you’re driving through the hours |
With an old friend at your side |
One year later I left Houston |
With an old friend at my side |
Well it did not say much |
But it was a beauty |
Of a coal black .45 |
And the lights of L.A. County |
They look like diamonds in the sky |
When you’re driving through the hours |
With an old friend at your side |
So I drove on all the day long |
And I drove on through the night |
And I thought of her a’waiting |
For to be his blushing bride |
And the lights of L.A. County |
They looked like diamonds in the sky |
As I drove into the valley |
With my old friend at my side |
And as she stood there at the altar |
All dressed in her gown of white |
Lord her face was bright as the stars a’shining |
Like I’d dreamed of all my life |
And they kissed each other |
And they turned around |
And they saw me standing in the aisle |
Well I did not say much |
I just stood there watching |
As that .45 told them goodbye |
And the lights of L.A. County |
Look like diamonds in the sky |
When you’re kneeling at the altar |
With an old friend at your side |
And the lights of L.A. County |
Are a mighty pretty sight |
When you’re kneeling at the altar |
With an old friend at your side |
