From the recording GREATEST HITS
Lyrics
LYIN’ ABOUT LOVIN’ LILAH LEAVES ME LONELY
SHE SHARED SEVERAL SECRETS SHEEPISHLY THAT NIGHT
HER GRANDMA LED THE TRAIL OF TEARS
SHE LEFT HER OWN TRAIL ALL RIGHT
TRAILS UNTIE TRACKS BESIDE MY BED FRAMES
A LIST IS HELD ABOVE THAT HOLDS OUR NAMES
I CAN’T ACCOUNT FOR SEVERAL SONS I’VE LOST ALONG THE WAY
BUT THEIR LITTLE FEET LEFT DRAGGING MARKS I FEAR
BUT THEIR LITTLE FEET LEFT DRAGGING MARKS I FEAR
I HAVE A FAMILY THAT’S IN HEAVEN LOOKING DOWN ON ME
I WALK AND TALK AND PASS THE CLOCK WITH THEM YOU SEE
SO I DON’T PASS THE TIME ALONE JUST DIFFERENTLY
AND LYIN’ ABOUT LOVIN LILAH LEAVES ME LONELY
LYIN’ ABOUT LOVIN’ LILAH LEAVES ME LONELY
LYIN’ ABOUT LOVIN’ LILAH
