Sunset Woman

Okay, give me a count, Steve
Why can't you do it?
Okay
A-one, two, a-one, two, three, four

Long-haired harlot
Now she comes a-dancin'
Eyes on her chances
I know her kind
Ribbons of scarlet
I've seen 'em entangling
And wrappin' around
A poor boy's mind

Sunset woman
Nobody needs you
You're a worthless woman
An aging overnight friend
Sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned in your wishing well of sin

Rocky Road Tavern
She's just like a fixture there
Looking to pull a stare
From the five o'clock crowd
Finding no takers
For yesterday's paper
She leaves
And takes the back door out

Sunset woman
Nobody needs you
You're a worthless woman
You're just an aging overnight friend
Sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned in your wishing well of sin

Ah, but Lord, those mistress eyes
In disbelief as she was leaving
Her youth was burned, the heads she once turned
Well, they were gone
Ah, but Lord, give her my smile
And my coat to a soul worth savin'
And see for me
She finds her way back home

Sunset woman
Nobody needs you
You're a worthless woman
An aging overnight friend
Hey, sunset woman
Nobody needs to
Be drowned in your wishing well of sin
Be drowned in your wishing well of sin
Nobody needs to be, no
Drowned in your wishing well of sin
