Good Lord Lorrie

Lyrics

Lorrie lit a cigarette and smiled and waved the smoke out of her face
 With her black hair brown from the summer sun
 Green eyes looked around the place
 And she told me that she loved me
 And I grinned and grabbed her hand and said, "I know"
 Let's get from here, now darling if we're going, let's go on and go
 ♪
 Well, Lorrie said her family used to have a little money
 And they still act like they do
 Well, your daddy don't think I'm fit to sit in the same room with you
 And if I ever set foot in Sevier county, well your brother said he'd break my jaw
 And here I sit with the dark haired daughter of Southwest Arkansas
 And I've been learning that believing and that barely breaking even
 It's just a part of life for you and me
 And I've been living with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess
 It's just another phase of being free
 And I've been learning how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
 ♪
 Well D-Queens dry so I bought us both a bottle in downtown Broken Bow
 Lorries got a buddy with a double wide trailer they were shaking dominoes
 And I had good intentions 'til I had too many, I was stupid I suppose
 You better put a little money where your mouth is boy and try to keep it closed
 And I've been learning that believing and that barely breaking even
 It's just a part of life for you and me
 And I've been living with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess
 It's just another phase of being free
 And I've been learning how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
 ♪
 Well Lorrie said I wonder what we ever went through all this trouble for
 You ain't half of who I thought you was and this ain't fun no more
 And her words cut clean through drunk and dark and dimmin' doorway light
 Well I've had all I can handle, hope you're happy now, goodnight
 Guess her folks were right, guess her folks were right
 Mhmmm
 And I've been learning that believing and that barely breaking even
 It's just a part of life for you and me
 And I've been living with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess
 It's just another phase of being free
 And I've been learning how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
 Well good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong
