Lyrics
She said, "I never knew..." She said, "I never knew..." She said, "I never knew what that man was gonna do..." She said, "I never knew..." She said, " I ain't gonna cry..." She said, " I ain't gonna cry..." She said, " I ain't gonna cry cuz he cut that guilty eye..." She said, " I ain't gonna cry..." She worked her fingers to the bone... She worked her fingers to the bone... Worked her fingers to the bone bringin' bread and makin' home... She worked her fingers to the bone... She kept your bed so warm at night... She kept your bed so warm at night... She kept your bed, fed your head, laid you down on roses red.. She kept your bed so warm at night... She said, "I do." At 17... She said, "I do." At 17... She said, "I do." At 17... Gave her heart and kept it clean... She said, "I do." At 17... So here's to you, oh foolish boy... So here's to you, oh foolish boy... So here's to you, oh foolish boy... you gave a woman for a toy... So here's to you, oh foolish boy... No more your lover, hangin' on... No more your lover, hangin' on... No more your lover, hangin' on, she's the rose, the lover's song... No more your lover, hangin' on... Talkin' Lady Worthalot... Talkin' Lady Worthalot... Talkin' Lady Worthalot and you're the boy that love forgot... Talkin' Lady Worthalot...
