[Verse 1]
Oh Loretta, she's a barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always twenty-two
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends her money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to

[Verse 2]
Oh Loretta, won't you say to me
Darlin', put your guitar on
Have a little shot of booze
Play a blue and a wailing song
My guitar rings a melody
My guitar sings, Lorеtta's fine
Long and lazy, brown and free
And I can have her any timе

[Verse 3]
Sweetest at the break of day
Prettiest in the setting sun
She don't cry when I can't stay
'Least not till she's all alone
Loretta, I won't be gone long
Keep your dancing slippers on
Keep me on your mind a while
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Oh Loretta, she's a barroom girl
Wears them sevens on her sleeve
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
Her age is always twenty-two
Her laughing eyes a hazel hue
Spends her money like water falls
Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
Loves me like I want her to
