Loretta (feat. Taylor Ashton)

Townes Van Zandt

Well, Loretta, she's my barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always twenty-two
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to

Oh, Loretta, won't you say to me?
Darling, put your guitar on
Have a little shot of booze
Play a blue and wailing song
My guitar rings a melody
My guitar sings, Loretta's fine
Long and lazy, blonde and free
I can have her anytime
I can have her anytime

Oh, sweetest at the break of day
Prettiest in the setting Sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
At least not till she's all alone
Loretta, I won't be gone long
Keep your dancing slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while
I will be back there and make you smile
I will be back there and make you smile

Well, Loretta, she's my barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
