Bobby Bare - It's A Freezing In El Paso lyrics

I can hear the footsteps walkin' by my bedside, Lord, she's leavin' I can smell the perfume driftin' through my room If I try to make her stay I'd know she couldn't leave and hurt me Might as well be on the darkside of the moon. 'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around Wish her winter hadn't spoil my summertime. So when her plane takes off for Memphis I'll be sittin' in some tavern I'll be washin' out the corners of my mind When she's in the wild blue yonder I'll be feedin' that old jukeboy Playin' every happy song that I can find. 'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around Wish her winter hadn't spoil my summertime...
