Lusty lady just died
Yes, that's all the paper said
If they knew her story, Lord, they'd cry, yeah
And build a monument instead
Lusty lady in a smoke-filled room
Trying to raise a stranger's child
He'd told her he'd be comin' home soon
But his youthful acts just drove him wild
So lusty, lusty lady, she was thinking
'Bout all her so-called friends
They would not her help when times were low, no
So she hung a scarlet letter outside the door
Lusty, lusty lady just died
Yes, that's all the paper said
If they knew her story, Lord, they'd cry, yeah
And build a monument instead
Oh, Lord!
Ah, many, many times the room drew
Mama moved me just to hide
All the strangers who took my place
As she took off her tower of pride
Yes, that's all the paper said
If they knew her story, Lord, they'd cry, yeah
