Waylon Jennings - Young Widow Brown lyrics

That Jimmy Brown died at just 25 And they lowered him under the ground Right at his head was a mark that had read I leave the world young widow Brown. He left her for me now it's plain to see Just why old Jim ain't around I know that I've tried but the man ain't alive That can keep up with young widow Brown. That woman she's crazy if she thinks That I'll just keep on a hanging around I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing That one thing is young widow Brown. In her high steppin' style she's a goin' hog wild This night life is a whoopin' me down But if I lose a place then I'm out of the race For kisses from young widow Brown. I must be gettin' old my walk's gettin' slow Just barely can make it around I work night and day spend all of my pay On pretties for young widow Brown. That woman she's crazy if she thinks That I'll just keep on a hanging around I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing That one thing is young widow Brown...
