The Ballad of Lucy Jordan

歌詞

(Ray Sawyer/Dennis Locorriere/Ron Haffkine) He stands tall in his handmade boots Pretty little girls all around Black was the shade of his nudie suit And when he sang there was not a sound From state line to Mobile he entertained the crowds Everybody there knew his name His climb had started but the road gets harder When you're closing in on fame Bright lights shine and the crowd goes wild "The show won't start 'til y'all calm down" One pretty little girl stands all alone And when she cried there was not a sound For just three days in New Orleans she never left his side That girl became a woman with her very first man But to her only lover she was just like all the others 'Til she stood there with that gun in her hand A shot rang out and the crowd goes wild A shot rang out and the crowd goes wild The crowd goes wild The crowd goes wild The crowd goes wild The crowd goes wild (c) 1973 Blackwood Music Inc. & Rekooh Music
