GORDON LIGHTFOOT - Red Velvet lyrics

rate me

Four months ago in april on a daycoach she came down

And the dust autumn winds begin to blow

Shoulda known I couldn't hold livin' out so far from town

And the nights to come are long are slow to go

Well now she's up and left me and when walkin' down the line

And the dusty autumn wind begins to blow

All dressed up in red velvet and he high heeled shoes so fine

And the nights to come are long and slow to go

Well if I had only know before we kissed

You can't keep red velvet on a poor dirt farm like this

Oh now she's gone and left me and went walkin' down the line

And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow

Well I'll sit and count the evening stars as they walk around

When the dusty autumn winds begin to blow

Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll drive on into town

Cause the nights to come are long and slow to go

Well I'll sit and count the evening stars as they walk around

When the dusty autumn winds begin to blow

Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll drive on into town

Cause the nights to come are long and slow to go

And those dusty autumn winds begin to blow
