David Alan Coe - Greener Than the Grass (We Laid On) слова песни
By David Allan CoeI painted quite a picture for the girls in her home townAnd she was no exception to the ruleSinging all them songs about the places I`ve beenMade a body fell just like a foolShe was like the paper bag that once had held the wineThrown without no caution to the windI left her like the empty bottle lying` on the groundSwearing` I`d pick her up againShe was greener than the grass we laid onUnderneath that Alabama sunI guess she should have knownThat old` highway was my homeDo-do-do-do-do-do do-do-doI said she was prettier than Paris in the rainLord, I filled her full of gypsy liesSwearing` I`d be coming back to fetch her in the SpringToo ashamed to look her in the eyeShe looked about as simple as the cotton dress I`ve tornSneaking` in her house at 3 a.m.Her Momma liked to question me the day after and I was sureHer intuition told her where we`d beenShe was greener than the grass we laid onUnderneath that Alabama sunI guess she should have knownThat old` highway was my homeShe should have never listened to my songs, to my songsShe should have never listened to my songs.
