Loretta Songtext
von Lowlands

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
Laughing eyes of hazel hue
Spends my money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to

Loretta, won't you say to me
"Darling, put your guitar on
Have a little shot of booze
And play me a Robert Johnson song"

My guitar sings a melody
My guitar sings Loretta′s fine
Long and lazy, blonde and free
And I can have her anytime


Sweetest at the break of day
Prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
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'm coming home, I′m coming home

I'm coming home, I′m coming home

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
Laughing eyes of hazel hue
Spends my money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to
