Waiting for loretta too long


i know a girl she's blonde and free
turns 21 on new years eve
everytime i see her she clings to me
cause thats what young girls do
shes fire on her own she knows me well
never gets mad at the storys i tell
shes an old soul living in a cheap motel
travelin to by sea
i been up and i been down
and i been away and i been around
and i been mopin all around this town
waiting for loretta too long
well i knew a girl
i knew her family too
and theyd all try to skin me if they only knew
but it only happened for a time or two
i couldn't hold her all through the storm
well shes a comfort in the rain
shes a walk in the park
shes cold in the day
cool when its dark
and i came outside and she was standing on my car
she don't like it when i tell her no
well i been up and i been down
i been away and i been around
and i been mopin all around this
waitin for loretta too long
well i met a girl she liked the way i smelled
thought it was a little bit weird but i thought what the
hell
so we road all around til the morning fell
i liked her freckles in the sunrise
so i saw her again but it wasn't too long
before she asked me to sing her a loretta song
and thats about the time everything went wrong
i never saw or heard from her again
cause she knew better than that
and she knew better than me
and she could see all the things i couldn't yet see
and she told me id get it eventually
i'm still looking i guess
so i been up and i been down
and i been away and i been around
and i been mopin all around this town
waiting for loretta too long

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
