Слушать бесплатно She Only Meant To Use Him

"(Charles Quillen & Dallas Cody) She was young and she was pretty And she met him in the city And somehow he fit right into her plan She knew she hit it lucky He owned half of Kentucky and best of all, He was a sixty year old man. She let him think he'd caught her She led him to the alter Totin' seven carats on her hand All dressed up in satin Aw' the good Lord wasted that one But she knew she'd be the winner in the end. 'Cause she only meant to use him She only meant to use him And she didn't care if what she did was wrong She only meant to use him And she knew what she was doing In a few years she'd be rich and he'd be gone. --- Instrumental --- In their million dollar palace The man grew old and jealous And he never let her leave the house alone She was in her prime and holding But she knew that he was old And chances were he wouldn't be around that long. As the days and nights grew longer The greed in her grewstronger And it even crossed her mind to take his life But he found out he'd been taken And his pride was badly shakened And he knew she never meant to be a wife. She only meant to use him She only meant to use him But she knew what she wanted in the end She only meant to use him. But he knew what she was doing And he swore she'd never have a dime to spend. Tormented by frustration She watched her beauty wasting As the lines upon her face began to show She turned to heavy drinkin' 'Cause her ship was slowly sinking And the bottle was the only place to go. Now 20 odd years later The headlines in the paper Said they laid her soul to rest at 53 And when they wheeled him to her coffin He took her diamond off And he just smiled and finally died at 93. She only meant to use him Lord knows she meant to use him But she died with seven carats on her hand All dressed in satin Aw' the good Lord wasted that one But her husband died a satisfied old man. She was young and she was pretty And she met him in the city And somehow he fit right into her plan She knew she hit it lucky He owned half of Kentucky and best of all, He was a sixty year old man...
