Luzianne's been lyin' in bed
I ain't heard a single word she said
'Cause the TV's on and Ol' Smokey is losin' again
That's when she really got to carryin' on
Voices ringin' down the trailer walls
Got me shakin' so bad, how's it gonna be when you're gone?
Whoa, did you ever really love me at all?
And I say Lucy, darling, don't you cry
Hundred dollar bill, that old prison cell couldn't hold me even if it tried
16 years, bucket o' tears gone before the end of the night
And I promised not to tell her no more lies (so if she asks)
Then the ward of Marshall county is a dear old friend of mine
I been runnin' on a pack a day
Linin' cigarettes with crack cocaine has finally broken me down
Stranded in a terrible state
I been collected by the boys in blue
All the while I was thinkin' of you
Sittin' alone, starin' at the evening news
Whoa, watchin' stories of the dazed and confused
So I say Lucy, darling, don't you cry
Hundred dollar bill, that old prison cell couldn't hold me even if it tried
16 years, bucket o' tears gone before the end of the night
And I promised not to tell her no more lies (so if she asks)
Then the ward of Marshall county is a dear old friend of mine
Come on, light it up
Luzianne's been lyin' in bed
And I ain't heard a single word she said 'cause
The TV's on and Ol' Smokey is losin' again
Hmm...
Hmm...
