Текст песни Greener Than The Grass (We Laid On) - Tammy Wynette

Number two (one)
Okay, okay
Number two (one)
He painted quite a picture for the girls in my home town
And I was no exception to the rule
Singing all them songs about the places that you′ve been
Made a body feel just like a fool
My pride was like the paper bag that once had held the wine
Thrown without no caution to the wind
He left me like the empty bottle lyin' on the ground
Swearin′ he would pick me up again
I was greener than the grass we laid on
Underneath that Alabama sun
I guess I should have known
That old highway was his home
He said that I was prettier than Paris in the rain
Lord, he filled me full of gypsy lies
Swearin' he'd be coming back to fetch me in the spring
Too ashamed to look me in the eye
I felt about as simple as the cotton dress I′ve torn
Sneakin′ in the house at 3 a.m
Momma liked to question me to death and I was sure
Her intuition told her where I'd been
I was greener than the grass we laid on
Underneath that Alabama sun
I guess I should have known
That old highway was his home
