larry “jinx” alexander - shady was a lady from louisville lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
shady was a lady down in louisville
shady’s eyes was green like a dollar bill
shady made a livin’ off of riverboat men
would you call shady a lady or saint

[verse 2]
shady had a bar outside of town
down by the river by the indian mine
everytime she heard a big riverboat moan
she run to the door and flip a red light on

[chorus]
shady, don’t worry what the townfolk say
when i was lonely, girl, you made my day
now, i’d marry you if i had my way
but i never could afford it on a deckhand’s pay

[verse 3]
love and money was shady’s game
all of the boys knew shady’s name
sawdust floor and a bluegrass band
shady turn a boy into an overnight man

[verse 4]
i’m a man, i been round
and there’s a shady down in every town
if you’re feelin’ down and outta place
take a bill and break down shady’s place
[chorus]
shady, don’t worry what the townfolk say
when i was lonely, girl, you made my day
i’d marry you if i had my way
but i never could afford it on a deckhand’s pay

[outro]
shady was a lady down in louisville
shady’s eyes was green like a dollar bill
shady made a livin’ off of riverboat men…
