WAYLON JENNINGS - BELLE OF THE BALL lyrics

rate me

A vagabond dreamer, a rhymer and singer of songs

Singing to no one and nowhere to really belong

I met a beautiful lady, a pure Southern belle of the ball

Like Scarlet O'Hara loved no one and wanted them all

Chorus:

I'll never forget you and love you inspite of your faults

The good and the bad I want to remember it all

I did a new dance and you did your Tennessee Waltz

The party's all over I came uninvited

I'm leaving and taking the belle of the ball

There will always be someone I guess that's the way it should be

I guess i should know that someone used to be me

They'll gather around her soon they'll all look the same

At the feet of the lady are lover's without any names

Chorus.
