Young Widow Brown

That Jimmy Brown died just 25 and they lowered him under the ground
Right at his head was a mark that had read I leave the world young widow Brown
He left her for me now it's plain to see just why old Jim ain't around
I know that I've tried but the man ain't alive
That can keep up with young widow Brown
That woman she's crazy if she thinks that I'll just keep on a hanging around
I'd leave in a minute cept for one thing that one thing is young widow Brown
[ guitar ]
In her high steppin' style she's a goin' hog wild this night life is a whoopin' me down
But if I lose a place then I'm out of the race for kisses from young widow Brown
I must be gettin' old my walk's gettin' slow just barely can make it around
I work night and day spend all of my pay on pretties for young widow Brown
That woman she's crazy...
