As recorded by Charley Crockett (From the 2024 Album VISIONS OF DALLAS) [Intro] C G [Verse 1]
G                    C
Oh, Loretta, she's a barroom girl

                         G
Wears them sevens on her sleeve

              C
Dances like a diamond shines

                          G
Tells me lies I love to believe

    D
Her age is always twenty-two

    C                     G
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue

                     C     G
Spends my money like water falls

C                        G C  G C  G
Loves me like I want her to
[Verse 2]
G                      C      G
Oh, Loretta, won't you say to me?

C                        G
Darling, put your guitar on

              C       G    C
Have a little shot of booze

                        G
Play a blue and wailing song

   D
My guitar rings a melody

   C                       G
My guitar sings, Loretta's fine

               C         G
Long and lazy, brown and free

C                           G C  G
And I can have her anytime
[Verse 3]
G               C
Sweetest at the break of day

                         G
Prettiest in the setting sun

                   C       G
She don't cry when I can't stay

C                            G
At least not till she's all alone

  D
Loretta, I won't be gone long

C
Keep your dancing slippers on

G               C
Keep me on your mind a while

                            G   C
I'm coming home, I'm coming home

Spends my money like waterfalls

Loves me like I want her to

Loves me like I want her to
