歌曲歌詞
She said I watch him walk down main street
A sweet one man parade
He'd tip his hat and just like that
Another score he'd made
I'd watch the girls all watch him
Moths drawn to the flame
The money showed the laughter flowed
From the way he played the game
He played the game
Some said he was a rambler
Some said he was a rake
Some said he was a gambler
Some said he was a fake
But I knew him like no one else
A gentleman was he
His days belonged to himself
His nights belonged to me
Belonged to me
And they're talkin' in the town square
In the taverns and the shops
I hear them talkin' everywhere
Their talkin' never stops
But all their words of wisdom
Won't make you go away
The day they closed the factory down
They had nothing
Nothing left to say
She said I take care of my momma now
Since my father died
I'm raising baby brother too
The way my father tried
His thirty years in the factory
