The Ballad Of Lois Malone

(This is the Ballad of Lois Malone)
 I knew this ol' gal, down in south Alabama
 She was a sight to behold
 She drank like a fish, and cussed like a sailor
 She was a hell-raisin' soul
 Everyone knew Lois, wild Lois
 Lois could show you a time (aw what a time)
 Oh the good people said, she was not a Christian
 She was footloose and fancy free
 She was not a lady, but she was a woman
 And that's all that mattered to me
 Everyone knew Lois, wild-wild Lois
 Lois could show you a time (Lawd what a time)
 I miss her sometimes, even though she was crazy (ol' girl)
 She was good for my mind (yes she was)
 She called me "baby"... all night long!
 Proud to have known... Lois Malone!
 Last week I ran into, an ol' drinkin' buddy
 We swapped a story or two
 We drank one to a town, down in south Alabama
 One to an ol' gal we knew
 I said... here's one to Lois, wild Lois
 Here's one to all her kind... Lois Malone!
 (You know yours and I know mine!)
 She called me "baby"... all night long!
 I was proud to have known... Lois Malone!
