Young Widow Brown

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 its plain to see
Just why old Jim aint around
I know that Ive tried but the man aint alive
That can keep up with young widow Brown

That woman, shes crazy if she thinks
That Ill just keep on a hanging around
Id leave in a minute cept for one thing
That one thing is young widow Brown

In her high steppin style, shes a goin hog wild
This night life is a whoopin me down
But if I lose a place then Im out of the race
For kisses from young widow Brown

I must be gettin old my walks 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, shes crazy if she thinks
That Ill just keep on a hanging around
Id leave in a minute cept for one thing
That one thing is young widow Brown
