Greener Than The Grass (We Laid On)

Lyrics
Number two (one) ♪ ♪ Okay, okay Number two (one) ♪ He painted quite a picture for the girls in my home town And I was no exception to the rule Singing all them songs about the places that you've been Made a body feel just like a fool My pride was like the paper bag that once had held the wine Thrown without no caution to the wind He left me like the empty bottle lyin' on the ground Swearin' he would pick me up again I was greener than the grass we laid on Underneath that Alabama sun I guess I should have known That old highway was his home ♪ He said that I was prettier than Paris in the rain Lord, he filled me full of gypsy lies Swearin' he'd be coming back to fetch me in the spring Too ashamed to look me in the eye I felt about as simple as the cotton dress I've torn Sneakin' in the house at 3 a.m Momma liked to question me to death and I was sure Her intuition told her where I'd been I was greener than the grass we laid on Underneath that Alabama sun I guess I should have known That old highway was his home
