David Allen Coe - Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile lyrics

rate me

Chorus:

Mona Lisa lost her smile

The painter's hands are trembling now

And if she's out there running wild

It's just because I taught her how

The masterpiece that we had planned

Is laying shattered on the ground

Mona Lisa lost her smile

And the painter's hands are trembling now

Verse I:

And the eyes that used to burn for me

Now they no longer look my way

And the love that used to be

Why, it just got lost in yesterday

And if she seems cold to the touch

Well there used to burn a flame

I gave too little, took too much

'Til I erased the painter's name

Chorus
