Walk Throught the Bottomland - Lyle Lovett

A CNew Jersey Flady I Gknew long Cago
And Fshe was a Emlady I G7say
But Cshe met a Fcowboy who Grode on a Crodeo
And Fhe stole her Gheart straightC away

The CNew Jersey Flady she Gloved him so Ctrue
AnFother love Emshe never G7had
But Ccowboys are Flonesome and Gcowboys are Cblue
And Fthey make the Gladies so Csad

Chorus: FSing me a Cmelody
FSing me a Cblues
FWalk through the Cbottomland Gwithout no Cshoes
FThe Brazos she's Crunning scared
FShe heard the Cnews
FWalk through the Cbottomland Gwithout no Cshoes

The CNew Jersey Flady knew Ghe loved her Ctoo
And you Fknow she Emtried to hold G7on
But the Crodeo Flife was the Glife that he Cknew
He Fhad to keep Gdrifting aClong

CShe never Fmarried and Gshe never Cwould
And Fall of the Empeople they'd G7say
The CNew Jersey Flady she Gjust ain't no Cgood
To Ffollow a Gcowboy that Cway

Chorus

The Flady she'd Csing him to Gsleep in the Cnight
And Fin the Emmorning he'd Ggo
FShe loved the Cdarkness and Ghated the Clight
DAlong with that damn rodeGo

The CNew Jersey Flady the Gday that he Cdied
She Fcovered him Emover with G7clay
And Cfeeling the Fwind in the Gnight as she Ccried
FShe heard the Gold cowboy Csay

Chorus
