Well Loretta she's a barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeves
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to b'lieve
Her age is always twenty two
Her laughin' eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
Well Loretta won't you say to me
Darlin' put your guitar on
Have another shot of booze
Play a blue and wailin' song
My guitar sings a melody
My guitar rings "Loretta's fine"
Long and lazy, blond and free
And I can have her any time
I can have her any time
Sweetest at the break a day
Prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
'Least not 'til she's all alone
Loretta I won't be gone long
Leave your dancin' slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while
I'll be back to make you smile.
I'll be back to make you smile
I'll be back to make you smile
I'll be back...
