Keeper

歌詞

Well Lulu's by the river and she got herself a good good man Spent a half a year offshore in ole Alabam' Her friends said she should leave him and come join them in the west coast sand But she knows she's got a keeper and they'll never really understand She puts a line in the water when the sun comes up Starts drinking when its going down Dancing all alone to the radio till her man come back around She might go down to Pensacola, maybe lay out on the old Gulf Shore But she don't go to bars at home without him anymore She don't care about what they say, she don't listen anyway All the roughneck rounders playing cards around the TV set Waiting around for something hasn't happened yet Joking with a dancer she said "I could help you to forget" But he knows he's got a keeper so he smiles and lights a cigarette and tips his hat He put his head on the pillow when the sun comes up Starts working when its going down Melting hot steel down in Bienville just waiting on the turnaround He starts thinking about Pensacola, he could be fishing on the old Gulf Shore But he don't like to do those things without her anymore He don't care about what they say, man he don't listen anyway They put their lines in the water when the sun comes up Start drinking when it's going down Dancing real slow to the radio cause her man come back around They might go down to Pensacola, do a little fishing on the old Gulf Shore But they don't like to stay out all night they way they did before They don't care about what they say, she never listens anyway
