LOVELY LUCY
(Lee Fry / Tompall Glaser)


Tompall Glaser - 1985





Lovely Lucy was a loose limbed woman
Heaven put together in a hell of a way
She could take a man's mind, make it unwind
The way she could swing it and sway

Every evening is a brand new adventure
She's a silken panther just a-lookin' for prey
I've been biding my time to make her all mine
And I'm gonna do it someday

Lovely Lucy loves too loosely
Loves unwisely, but never too wrong
Lovely Lucy treats love lightly
You might hold her, but not for long

(Instrumental Break)

Lovely Lucy is a good timin' woman
She's after laughter and another good time
One of these nights when the mood is just right
I'm gonna stand in her line

She don't fool me with the way that she rambles
There's a lady in the baby runnin' round
There's a look in her eyes she can,t disguise
That look's gonna settle her down

Lovely Lucy loves too loosely
Loves unwisely, but never too wrong
Lovely Lucy treats love lightly
You might hold her, but not for long
I wanna hold her my whole life long
