Tony Joe White - Widow Wimperly lyrics

Widow Wimberly I like to stop and talk with you a while You ain't got no one to chop your wood No one to mend your fence If you had the money you could hire some help But it is hard to even pay your rent, yes it is La la Lord Widow Wimberly how do you still manage to smile? Widow Wimberly I like to stop and learn from you a while Widow Wimberly how do you still manage to smile? Widow Wimberly I like to stop and learn from you a while
