Red Velvet
Four months ago in April a day-coach she came down
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
Should have known I couldn't hold her livin' out so far from town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
If I had known before we kissed
You can't keep red velvet on a bordered farm like this
Well now she's up and left me she went a walkin' down the line
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
All dressed up in red velvet and her high-heel shoes so fine
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
Well I sit and count December stars while they dance around
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll ride on into town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
If I had known before we kissed
You can't keep red velvet on a bordered farm like this
Well now she's up and left me she went a walkin' down the line
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
All dressed up in red velvet and her high-heel shoes so fine
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
Should have known I couldn't hold her livin' out so far from town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
If I had known before we kissed
You can't keep red velvet on a bordered farm like this
Well now she's up and left me she went a walkin' down the line
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
All dressed up in red velvet and her high-heel shoes so fine
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
Well I sit and count December stars while they dance around
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll ride on into town
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
If I had known before we kissed
You can't keep red velvet on a bordered farm like this
Well now she's up and left me she went a walkin' down the line
And the dusty autumn winds began to blow
All dressed up in red velvet and her high-heel shoes so fine
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
