Lady Down on Love
Listen to the Midi File of "Lady Down on Love"
Alabama
Owens
1983
It's her first night on the town since she was just eighteen, a
lady down on
love and out of hope and dreams.
The ties that once bound her now are broke away, and she's like a
baby, just
learning how to play.
She never thought that love could ever end so soon.
Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon when he asked her to
marry
and she gladly said O.K.
And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday.
Now she's a lady down on love.
She needs somebody to gently pick her up.
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound to a man who
would love her
and never let her down.
Well, I know a lady that's down on her love, 'cause I used to
hold her and
have that special touch.
But work took me a way from home late at nights, and I wasn't there
when she
turned out the lights.
Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust, and she just
couldn't live
with a man she couldn't trust.
Now she's a lady down on love.
She needs somebody to gently pick her up.
She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound to man who
would love her
and never let her down.
Now she's a lady down on love.
