《Greener Than the Grass We Laid On》歌词

[00:00:00] Greener Than the Grass We Laid On - David Allan Coe

[00:00:00] I painted quite a picture for the girls in her home town

[00:00:09] And she was no exception to the rule

[00:00:17] Singing all them songs about the places that I've been

[00:00:25] Made a body fell just like a fool

[00:00:32] She was like the paper bag

[00:00:35] That once had held the wine

[00:00:40] Thrown without no caution to the wind

[00:00:47] I left her like the empty bottle lying' on the ground

[00:00:54] Swearing' I'd pick her up again

[00:01:01] She was greener than the grass we laid on

[00:01:09] Underneath that Alabama sun

[00:01:15] I guess she should have known

[00:01:19] That old' highway was my home

[00:01:24] Do do do do do do do do do

[00:01:37] I said she was prettier than Paris in the rain

[00:01:45] Lord I filled her full of gypsy lies

[00:01:51] Swearing' I'd be coming back

[00:01:54] To fetch her in the Spring

[00:01:58] Too ashamed to look her in the eye

[00:02:05] She looked about as simple

[00:02:08] As the cotton dress I've torn

[00:02:13] Sneaking' in her house at 3 a m

[00:02:19] Her Momma liked to question me the day

[00:02:23] After and I was sure

[00:02:26] Her intuition told her where we'd been

[00:02:33] She was greener than the grass we laid on

[00:02:41] Underneath that Alabama sun

[00:02:47] I guess she should have known

[00:02:50] That old' highway was my home

[00:02:54] She should have never listened

[00:02:55] To my songs to my songs

[00:03:01] She should have never listened to my songs

[00:03:05] Do do do do do do do do do

[00:03:14] Do do do do do do do do do

[00:03:22] Do do do
