Loretta, she's a barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always 22
Her laughing eyes are hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
Loves me like I want her to
Loretta, won't you say to me
"Darling, put your guitar on
Have a little shot of booze
Now play a blue and wailing song"
My guitar rings a melody
My guitar sings, Loretta's fine
Long and lazy, blond and free
I can have her any time
Sweetest at the break of day
Prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
'Least not 'til she's all alone
Loretta, I won't be gone long
Keep your dancing slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home
Loretta, she's my barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always 22
Her laughing eyes are hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
Loves me like I want her to
Spends my money like waterfalls
Loves me like I want her to
