Well, I got a woman way over town
That's good to me, oh yeah
Said I got a woman way over town
Good to me, oh yeah

She gives me money when I'm in need
Yeah, she's a kind of friend indeed
I got a woman way over town
That's good to me, oh yeah

She saves her loving early in the morning
Just for me, oh yeah
She saves her loving early in the morning
Just for me, oh yeah

She saves her loving just for me
Always loves me so tenderly
I got a woman way over town
That's good to me, oh yeah

She's there to love me
Both day and night
Never grumbles or fusses
Always treats me right

Never running in the streets
Leaving me alone
She knows a woman's place
Is right there now in the home

I got a woman way over town
That's good to me, oh yeah
Said I got a woman, way over town
That's good to me, oh, yeah

Well, she's my baby, don't you understand?
Yeah, I'm her loving man now

That's good to me, oh yeah

Well, don't you know she's all right?
Well, don't you know she's all right?
She's all right, she's all right

Kooper

I stand alone
Cant nobody make me change my mind about my love
So many people tryin’ to bring a good thing down today
Ya know it’s down on the ground
Before it’s had a chance to get away
I stand alone
In a world where people wheel ya this way, deal ya that
I tried so very hard to win her love for me
Cant nobody take me where I don't wanna be

Love of my life I feel so much love for you
That’s why I stand alone and do the things I have to do
I have never been so much in love as I am today
And tomorrow - I know tomorrow
I’ll stand alone

Kooper

When I was comin’ down from someone else ya know
You took my hand
You pushed me up, you pulled me out
Ya done me good do ya understand?
Noone else around could have saved me
Oh Jolie ya shone just like the sun
And like the dead you came & you raised me
Oh Jolie Look at what you done

You may be young but you got so much more
Than any girl I know
And I see your face most every place
Don't make no difference where I go
So lets not fall so fast that we get crazy
Oh Jolie will ya think of me ?
And when your picture of me gets a little hazy
Ya know Jolie its only you I see

Noone else around could have saved me
Oh Jolie ya shone just like the sun
And like the dead you came & you raised me
Oh Jolie Look at what you done
Look at what you done

Prine

Sam stone came home,
To his wife and family
After serving in the conflict overseas.
And the time that he served,
Had shattered all his nerves,
And left a little shrapnel in his knee.
But the morphine eased the pain,
And the grass grew round his brain,
And gave him all the confidence he lacked,
With a purple heart and a monkey on his back.

Chorus:
Theres a hole in daddys arm where all the money goes,
Jesus christ died for nothin I suppose.
Little pitchers have big ears,
Dont stop to count the years,
Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios.
Mmm....

Sam stones welcome home
Didnt last too long.
He went to work when hed spent his last dime
And sammy took to stealing
When he got that empty feeling
For a hundred dollar habit without overtime.
And the gold rolled through his veins
Like a thousand railroad trains,
And eased his mind in the hours that he chose,
While the kids ran around wearin other peoples clothes...

Repeat chorus:

Sam stone was alone
When he popped his last balloon
Climbing walls while sitting in a chair
Well, he played his last request
While the room smelled just like death
With an overdose hovering in the air
But life had lost its fun
And there was nothing to be done
But trade his house that he bought on the g, i. bill
For a flag draped casket on a local heroes hill

Repeat chorus
