An Article from Life - Lefty Frizzell[00:00:00]
Evening sun had just gone down[00:00:07]
On five acres of ground I'm in Georgia Georgia[00:00:10]
When the back door opened silently[00:00:17]
She had made some tea and said here[00:00:20]
This is for you[00:00:24]
Then a man selling magazines[00:00:27]
Stopped And began talking with my wife[00:00:31]
And before he left there well[00:00:37]
That man had sold her[00:00:41]
Twelve months subscriptions to Life[00:00:44]
On page twenty-five it said all New York[00:00:50]
Was alive and really swinging[00:00:55]
Then page 29 it showed a picture of parties and wine[00:01:00]
With people singing[00:01:09]
Well it wasn't long until I saved[00:01:13]
A thousand dollar bill from the harvest[00:01:16]
And I had planned to buy more land[00:01:22]
But my baby hit me where it hurts the hardest[00:01:26]
She said I'd like to see New York[00:01:32]
What could I say except to say that's fine[00:01:36]
And while she was packing my thoughts wandered back and[00:01:42]
That article from Life ran through my mind[00:01:49]
Oh New York was still alive at 2 am[00:01:55]
When we arrived Sunday morning morning[00:02:00]
She said we'd only stay a week[00:02:05]
Cause in seven months our first child would be born[00:02:08]
She knew it meant the world to me[00:02:15]
Still the parties and the wild life changed her mind[00:02:18]
She begged to be set free I said it just can't be[00:02:25]
In anger I took my darlings life[00:02:32]
Read about the harvest crime turn to page 29[00:02:39]
I'm featured in an article from Life[00:02:45]
