Red Shirt

I was workin' overtime in the town of Lorraine Right between Odessa and Abeline Feelin' like somethin' that the cat dragged in The whole place looked a little worse than me I left work and walked straight through town With the wind at my back and the sun goin' down I got home and turned right around My TV chair was no place for me CHORUS: There was a two-bit moon in a ten-cent sky On a west Texas night with the clouds rollin' by All lit up just like the fourth of July I'll feel a little better as the hours go by I left home with the screen door slammin' And I went to a club where the band was jammin' You know what they say about feast or famine They were all linin' up just to dance with me I had my red shirt on, I was hot I can tell ya I was just warmin' up at a quarter to eleven Thought I might have died and gone to heaven How did this happen to a girl like me CHORUS I'm gonna take that moon like a big yellow quarter Gonna put it in the juke box and place my order Dance 'til my feet hurt and kick up my heels Sing y'all a song 'bout the way that it feels CHORUS
