charley crockett - lilly my dear lyrics

Loading...

lilly, my darling
lilly, my dear
for what awful reason
have you come down here?
is it for money? is it for pride?
or just for the joy of watching me cry?

i’ve gambled in texas
been all around
stood on the corner
not a word in my mouth
seen lots of people
come rolling by
throw me a dollar
i could sure use me five

lilly, my darling
lilly, my dear
for what awful reason
have you come down here?
is it for money? is it for pride?
or just for the joy of watching me cry?

i’ve got no possessions
the money i’ve saved
all that i’m asking
is for dirt on my grave
so, honey, if you love me
just let me be
lord, in this life
i can’t get no relief
lilly, my darling
lilly, my dear
for what awful reason
have you come down here?
is it for money? is it for pride?
or just for the joy of watching me cry?

no peace for the guilty
no rest for the sinning
when i get out
i’ll finally be winning
if the good times don’t k!ll me
the devil, he will
lay me to rest on mockingbird hill

lilly, my darling
lilly, my dear
for what awful reason
have you come down here?
is it for money? is it for pride?
or just for the joy of watching me die?
