All of the Redheaded Stranger Willi Carlisle

[Verse 1]
Well I fell in with a Stone County girl
Rough as the country is wide
Wild as the bramble of the blackberry tangle
And as sweet as the berries they're by

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now, a solider has his rifle
A hangman has his noose
My love has got her overalls
And a tongue so sharp and loose

[Chorus]
She's three beers deep in the throes of that poetry
Makin' me a vow she won't keep
Says she's unhappy, so damn unhappy
In love but she can't tell me why
My baby sings all of the Redheaded Stranger
Sometimes when shе's too drunk to cry

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
There's the quiеt drum shuffle, the taps of her shoes
The peace of a cold, lonesome place
Sober she might not remember the words
Sunday is reserved for Amazing Grace
