Four months ago in April, on a day-coach she came down
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
I shoulda known I couldnt hold her livin out so far from town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
Well now shes up and left me and went walkin down the line
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
All dressed up in red velvet & her high-heeled shoes so fine
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
Well if Id only known, before we kissed, that
You cant keep red velvet on a poor dirt farm like this
So now shes gone and left me & went walkin down the line
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Well Ill sit & count the evening stars, as they walk around
When the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Then Ill call my dog & take the truck & drive on into town
Cause the nights to come are long & slow to go
Well Ill sit & count the evening stars, as they walk around
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Then Ill call my dog & take the truck & drive on into town
Cause the nights to come are long & slow to go
And those dusty autumn winds, be - gin to blow
