[1] Oh Loretta she's my [4] barroom [1] girl [4] wears them sevens on her [1] sleeve
Dances like a [4] diamond [1] shines [4] tells me lies I love to [1] believe
Her [5] age is always twenty-two her [4] laughing eyes a hazel [1] hue
Spends my money like [4] water [1] falls [4] loves me like I want her [1] to

Oh Loretta won't you say to me darling put your guitar on
have a little shot of booze play a blue and wailing song
My guitar rings a melody my guitar sings Loretta's fine
Long and lazy blonde and free and I can have her any time

Oh sweetest at the break of day prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay least not 'til she's all alone
Loretta I won't be gone long keep your dancing slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while I'm coming home I'm coming home

Oh Loretta she's my barroom girl wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always twenty-two her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
