The Ballad Of Miss Lily - David Ford[00:00:00]
Well there never was a girl like lily[00:00:41]
She was a pretty little heartbreak machine[00:00:45]
She had a way to part a fool and his money[00:00:48]
She was a lucky litte gambler's dream[00:00:52]
And she promised up the world and whatever[00:00:56]
And she could get a man to do anything[00:01:00]
And by the morning he'd be cleaned out[00:01:04]
And crawling on his knees[00:01:06]
But every night he let some poor fool sing[00:01:07]
He said I may not be a rich man baby[00:01:11]
But I'll tell you what I'm gonna do[00:01:15]
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city[00:01:19]
I'm gonna spend all my money on you[00:01:22]
She'll take a seat up at the bar around 7[00:01:27]
And wait for some poor sucker stumbling by[00:01:30]
Yea and she'll pull him in and drag him on under[00:01:34]
And then she'll drown him in thoose big dark eyes[00:01:37]
And with the moonlight breaking[00:01:41]
Through a litte crack in the sky[00:01:44]
Well he was broken and the damage is done[00:01:45]
He'd give up everything he had[00:01:49]
For a love that could never be yea[00:01:51]
Be screaming at the top of his lungs[00:01:53]
He said I may not be a rich man baby[00:01:57]
But I'll tell you what I'm gonna do[00:02:01]
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city[00:02:04]
I'm gonna spend all my money on you[00:02:08]
One day what came in to town[00:02:43]
Some kind of big shot man[00:02:44]
All full of swagger like some hollywood scene[00:02:46]
I tried to tell him stay away from miss lily[00:02:50]
That woman's trouble if you know what I mean[00:02:54]
Well he just laughed[00:02:58]
And said I think I can take care of myself[00:02:59]
I said well don't pretend you haven't been warned[00:03:01]
They found him walking in the morning[00:03:05]
By the side of the road[00:03:07]
Yea he was naked as the day he was born[00:03:09]
He said I may not be a rich man baby[00:03:13]
But I'll tell you what I'm gonna do[00:03:17]
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city[00:03:21]
I'm gonna spend all my money on you[00:03:24]
He said I may not be a rich man baby[00:03:28]
But I'll tell you what I'm gonna do[00:03:32]
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city[00:03:36]
I'm gonna spend all my money on you[00:03:39]
