Warn all the horses

Warn all the riders

That the fire is coming down

Tell my mother

My father and sister

There ain't nothing to worry about

I want Loretta but she won't have me

She married a loser and he makes her happy

I'm gonna leave now

The things I was thinkin

Buried on a dirt road

Where my heels are sinkin

Pack all the instruments

Shoot off the rifles

Climb up on the hillside

And Wait for the nightfall

And take to the highway one more time

Wait for the right words to fall int rhymes

I want Loretta but she won't have me

She married a loser and he makes her happy

Bet him in a fist fight

I'll beat him in a knife throw

Beat him in a shot glass

Loretta's stone cold

I met a preacher man

And he felt the same

He told the boys

And the robbed the bank

They caught him in the next town

He was holdin the knife

He said we're gonna work on the chain gang

For the rest of our lives

I want Loretta but she won't have me

She married a loser and he makes her happy

I want Loretta but she won't have me

She married a loser and he makes her happy
