Green On Red - Shed A Tear (For The Lonesome) lyrics

Rudy heard stories from a woman she met in Nogales About dreams that came true like the movies she loved as a child She worked night and day slaved for her pay sewing dresses To buy her ticket to get her away down the mile Chorus I never knew what a woman could do when she's desperate Funny how we all wound up at the same motel So I'll buy you a beer and we'll shed a tear for the lonesome Who wander this world searching tor someone to love Rudy found trouble in a truckstop outside of Phoenix A wizened old man with offers she knew to refuse So he promised her things he saw in her eyes she needed But with a child inside her now she had something to lose Chorus I never knew what a woman could do when she's desperate Funny how we all wound up at the same motel So I'll buy you a beer and we'll shed a tear for the lonesome Who wander this world searching tor someone to love
