Buddy I went down to Scarlet Town Never been there before Well you slept on a feather bed I slept on the floor
I don't mind a little town Or drinking my coffee cold But the things I seen in Scarlet Town Did mortify my soul
Look at that deep well Look at that dark ray Ringing that iron bell In Scarlet Town today
I spent some time in New Orleans And ? A Scarlet Town brought me down Low as I ever been
Look at that deep well Look at that dark ray Ringing that iron bell In Scarlet Town today
On the day I came to Scarlet Town You promised I'd be your bride You left me here to rot away Like holly on a mountainside
Look at that deep well Look at that dark ray Ringing that iron bell In Scarlet Town today
Now you may hide in Scarlet Town For a hundred years or more But the man who knows what time it is Is knocking at the door
So fare you well, my own true love If you ever see me around I'll be looking through a telescope From hell to Scarlet Town
Look at that deep well Look at that dark ray Ringing that iron bell In Scarlet Town todayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
