Long haired Holly,
She comes dancin'
Eyes on chancin
I know her kind
Ribbons of scarlet
I've seen 'em entanglin'
And wrappin around
A poor boys mind
Sunset woman
Nobody needs you
You're a worthless woman
An agin' overnight friend
Sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned
In your wishin well of sin
~Instrmental~
Rock 'n' Roll tavern
She's just like a fixture there
Looking to pull a stare
From the 5 o'clock crowd
Findin no takers
For yesterdays papers
She leaves,
And takes the back door out
Sunset woman
Nobody needs you.
You're a worthless woman.
You're just an aging overnight friend.
Sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned
In your wishing well of sin
~Instrumental~
Ah, but Lord, those mistress eyes
in disbelief as she was leaving...
her youth was burned the heads she once turned
Ah, but they were gone.
But Lord give her my ......and my coat too,
So worth keeping...
And see for me she finds her way back home.
Sunset woman
Nobody needs you
You're a worthless woman
An aging overnight friend
Sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned
In your wishing well of sin
Be drowned
In your wishing well of sin
Nobody needs to no
Be drowned
In your wishing well of sin.
It's not "long haired Holly," for God's sake. It's "long haired harlot." Holly is silly, and doesn't rhyme with "scarlet" in the second verse. Harlot does. Holly. LOL.
