Ol' Smokey
Ol Smokey
V1
Luzianne's been lyin in bed
I ain't heard a single word she said
Cause the TVs on and Ol Smokey is losin again
V2
That's when she really got to carryin on
Voices ringin down the trailer walls
Got me shakin so bad, how's it gonna be when you're gone
Oh did you ever really love me at all
Chorus
So I say Lucy, darling, don't you cry
Hundred dollar bill that old prison cell couldn't hold me even if it tried
16 years, bucket o'tears gone before the end of the night
And I promised not to tell her no more lies
(so if she asks)
Then the ward of Marshall county is a dear old friend of mine
V3
I been runnin on a pack a day
Linin cigarettes w crack cocaine has finally broken me down
Stranded in a terrible state
V4
I been collected by the boys in blue, all the while I was thinkin of you
Sittin alone, starin at the evening news
Oh, watchin stories of the dazed and confused
Chorus
So I say Lucy, darling, don't you cry
Hundred dollar bill that old prison cell couldn't hold me even if it tried
16 years, bucket o'tears gone before the blink of an eye
And I promised not to tell her no more lies (so if she asks)
Then the ward of marshall county is a dear old friend of mine
Outro
Luzianne's been lyin in bed
And I ain't heard a single word she said cause
The TVs on and Ol Smokey is losin again
