Blue Yodel No. 3 (Evening Sun Yodel)

She's long, she's tall, she's six feet from the ground
She's long, she's tall, she's six feet from the ground
She's tailor made, she ain't no hand-me-down
Oh-de-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee

She got eyes like diamonds, her teeth shine just the same
Got eyes like diamonds, her teeth shine just the same
She got sweet ruby lips, and hair like a horse's mane
Oh-de-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee

Every time I see you, woman, you always on the street
Every time I see you, you always on the street
You hang out on the corners, like a police on his beat
Oh-de-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee
Hey, hey, hey

Won't you tell me mama, where you stayed last night
Tell me mama, where you stayed last night
'Cause your hair's all tangled, and your clothes don't fit you right
Oh-de-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee

I ain't gonna tell you no story, woman, I ain't going to lie
I ain't gonna tell you no story, mama, I ain't going to lie
But the day you quit me, woman, that's the day that you die
Oh-de-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee

I hate to see this evening sun go down
Lord, I hate to see this evening sun go down
'Cause it makes me think I'm on my last go-round
Oh-de-lay-ee, oh-dee, oh-lay-ee
Oh-dee, oh-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee
