Blood Red And Going Down — текст песни (Tanya Tucker)

(Claude Putman Jr)

That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.

Daddy said: "Now come girl, we`re headin` down the road to Augusta."
An thinkin` through his clenched teeth, he called Mama`s name, then he cussed her.
He said: "Girl, you`re young, but some dude has come along and stole your mother."
Ah, but you can`t steal a willin` mind whose mom is always lookin` for a lover.

That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.

With dusty teardrops in his face, my daddy cried an` big steps he was takin`.
An` halfway runnin` to keep up, my shorter legs were so tired and shakin`.
"Where did I go wrong, girl? Why would she leave us both this way?"
At times like these, a child with tears never knows exactly what to say

That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.

We searched in every bar room, an` honky-tonk as well.
An` finally Daddy found them, but Lord, you know, the rest is hard to tell.
He sent me out to wait, but scared, I looked back through the door.
An` Daddy left them both soakin` up the sawdust on the floor.

That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
That Georgia sun was blood red and goin` down.
